The sound of joy is enlightenment. Hereby, our invitation, we do invite you to be of our space world.

Sunrise in outer space. Sun Ra is in outer space. Love for everybody.

Marshall Allen, 99, Astronaut (2025) is centered around the world renowned free and avant-garde jazz musician and current leader of the legendary Sun Ra Arkestra, of which he has been a continual member since 1958. He has recorded primarily with Sun Ra since the late 1950s and has led the Arkestra since 1995, following Sun Ra's death in 1993 and John Gilmore's two years later. The debut album of "one of the most distinctive and original saxophonists of the postwar era", mentioned twice in the Guinees Book of Records, was released in his 101st year of life.

Let's celebrate the birthdays of the oldest practicing alto saxophonist and big band leader between the Sun and Jupiter and that of his extraterrestrial mentor from Saturn.

116 years ago, the Galilaea spaceship, inhabited by a time-stuck, centenarian rope-maker who believes he is a piano, landed on the planet to study extraterrestrial triple-digit birthdays. The most important realization: you can always dance to it.

The only reason for time is so that everything doesn't happen at once. - Albert Einstein

Now it's time to try the impossible. - Sun Ra

Happy birthdays in space! Galileo's Galilaea church ship is the place!
