The Space Movie was made at the request of NASA to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the 1969 Apollo 11 mission which carried Neil Armstrong Michael Collins and Edwin 'Buzz' Aldrin on a historic journey. NASA and The United States National Archive made all the footage available for the very first time including never before seen film of the lunar landscape life aboard the spacecraft the Space Shuttle Mars Venus and beyond. Even more importantly NASA released the extraordinary soundtracks of the all the conversations between the astronauts and ground control... in Houston. The film's soundtrack was written arranged and performed by Mike Oldfield. He used extracts from his ground-breaking symphonic tonepoems such as 'Tubular Bells' and 'Hergest Ridge' including previously unreleased orchestral versions and wound these in and out of the NASA soundtracks together with new music which was eventually released on the in a different form on 'Incantations'. The result is a unique soundtrack for a unique film. [show more]
