Maggie's top six tracks for space enthusiasts

"For me, this piece of music is almost like the opening of a flower, the petals unfurling. The moon landings did that for me. It opened up my wonder."

Meet Dr Maggie Aderin-Pocock: space scientist, science communicator and self-confessed "lunatic" moon obsessive. Here, she picks an eclectic playlist of tracks to mark the 50th anniversary of the Moon landings, from Van Morrison's Moondance to Gil Scott Heron's Whitey On The Moon, Stevie Wonder's Moon Blue and Debussy's Claire de Lune.

This is a short version of a special In Tune Mixtape curated and presented by Maggie Aderin-Pocock. To listen to her choices in full, search ±«Óãtv Sounds for the In Tune Mixtape.
