Space themed songs

What have you played that is space themed (even loosely). We are looking for pieces that are grade .5-3+ for our spring concert. We have some in mind but are open to ideas!

Thanks!

That would be Jan van der Roost. Pretty cool piece!

On the .5-1 side:
Comet Ride

Star Wars - multiple version Grade 1-there. Some I've done
Star Wars Episode III - Beginning Band Version that's three movements.

2-3+
Star Wars: The Force Awakens - arr. Brown
The Mandalorian - arr. Murtha
Selections from Star Wars - Story
Star Wars: The Last Jedi

I haven't done this one, but 'Suite from the Planets' arr. Johnnie Vinson has a video available from Ion Concert Media - could be a fun one to do!
