20. Life on Mars

Sat Sep 27, 2025, 08:04 PM

Yesterday

David Bowie.

Also, from the album The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars: Hang On to Yourself (also mentions Mars).

B-52's - 53 Miles West of Venus

There's also Planet Claire, but I'm not sure which celestial sphere it belongs to. All the trees are red, if that helps.

Seatbelts - Autumn in Ganymede
Seatbelts - Cats on Mars
