Porta Estel-lar
This interactive art/theater collaboration between Eduardo Cajal (owner of the air plane), Playmodes, and MID (Media Interactive Design) takes audience members on a six-minute journey to outer space and other dimensions using state of the art lighting and sound. Entitled Porta Estel-lar, it was installed in Spain in the Ciutadella Park during the Barcelona local holidays of La Mercé, September of 2015.

It Sings
The European Space Agency (ESA) have released audio of the comet upon which us little ol' human beings just landed. And it is not what you would have expected... trilling, gurgling, bubbling...
From the ESA description:
"Rosetta’s Plasma Consortium (RPC) has uncovered a mysterious ‘song’ that Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko is singing into space. The comet seems to be emitting a ‘song’ in the form of oscillations in the magnetic field in the comet’s environment. It is being sung at 40-50 millihertz, far below human hearing, which typically picks up sound between 20 Hz and 20 kHz. To make the music audible to the human ear, the frequencies have been increased in this recording. Original data credit: ESA/Rosetta/RPC/RPC-MAG. This sonification of the RPC-Mag data was compiled by German composer Manuel Senfft (www.tagirijus.de). Thumbnail image credit: ESA/Rosetta/NAVCAM – CC BY-SA IGO 3.0"
