On July 8th, the space shuttle Atlantis launched on the last planned mission for the shuttle program. We asked for your favorite space-themed music, and we're commemorating Atlantis' return to terra firma with your picks throughout the day, with Strauss' iconic "Thus Spake Zarathustra" as our 10 a.m. Morning Glory.

Some of your selections:

Gustav Holst "The Planets"

"The Excursions of Mr. Brouček to the Moon" an opera by Janacek

"Song to the moon" from Rulsaka

Bach, Brandenburg Concerto No. 2

W.A. Mozart "The Jupiter symphony"

Star Trek and Star Wars themes
