On Tuesday, 23 July, the Alan Parsons Live Project played at the Foro Italico in Rome. Alan dedicated his classic song Eye in the Sky to ESA astronaut Luca Parmitano and recorded a video message that was sent to International Space Station. Eye in the Sky is one of Luca’s favourite songs, and on viewing this message, Luca said, “Fantastico!”

Luca Parmitano is the sixth Italian astronaut in space, but he was the first to really go ‘into space’ and leave the the protective shell of his spacecraft, when he made two spacewalks a few weeks ago during his Volare mission.

  1. Kudos to Alan Parson and, most of all, to Luca Parmitano!!

    Grande Luca!! L'Italia dovrebbe seguire te prima di tutti quegli idoli inutili della TV!! Tu ci rendi fieri di essere italiani!! 🙂

    Cheers

  2. search on Flickr for the account volaremission – this is a collection of all the photos posted by Luca so far during his ISS mission. Search for Australia within that account and it should turn up. Sorry YT doesn't let me post the URL here – would be a lot easier!

  3. Hearing Alan Parsons say so humbly "This is a real honour to dedicate my song to you"…. well, I think that Luca must have been really on Cloud Nine. Literally.
