Interested in the REAL "music of the spheres?"
Turns out that Aristotle wasn't all wet when he came up with the idea. The "spheres" - the planets and moons in our solar system - do make music, but it took the Voyager space probes to record it and beam it back down to Earth.

Now, you can hear the complex interactions of the solar wind with planetary magnetospheres, moons, and rings to create some of the most unusual and indescribable music ever - the Symphonies Of The Planets series:

The more adventurous astronomy geeks among you might also want to check out the NASA Space Sounds collection, in which each featured planet, moon, and ring system gets its own CD:

And no, I don't get a commission on any sales. I just happen to think this stuff is really cool.

2. Hey that's not SPHERE MUSIC! It's just an old SONIC YOUTH
CD with a different label.
