Let me toss in a rec for another excellent album, even if Ms Fish and Ms Lackey were only peripherally involved:

"To Touch The Stars", a compilation of space-program-related filk. Some of the performers will be quite recognizeable -- Julia Ecklar and Kris Klover provide most of the work - and there are some really nice ones. Five of the tracks are free mp3 downloads on the site, as well.

Long ago, man looked up into the sky,
Wondering what, and questioning why.
In that distant past, a journey was born
That’s taking us far, far from home.

We looked and we thought and we planned out our trip,
But fearing our reach exceeded our grip.
To the Moon and beyond went our starry-eyed gaze,
To places we never had known.

Now’s the time for us to touch a star.
If we want to learn, we must travel far.
There is much to see, so we must still explore.
To find out just what there are heavens for
