I finally got this song I've been working on for a few months done and just in time for SpaceX's launch tomorrow! I decided to try and actually use video for once in a video (crazy I know) and I hope y'all let me know what you think of how it turned out! This song has been a favorite of mine since my childhood when I first heard it. One of the few songs that stuck with me through the years. This song is not mine originally and was written shortly after the Shuttle program began in '83, with the details mentioned in the description. I definitely recomend you check out the original artists' versions! I hope you enjoy! As always, I am very thankful for my Patreon supporters and if you want to contribute to keeping this channel going, please consider joining here: www.patreon.com/AlderonTyran

On June 6th, 2024, Starship 29 successfully splashed-down from a suborbital test flight, along with her booster, which also splashed down safely on the other side of the globe. 29 got pretty mauled by re-entry plasma entering the hinges of her control fins, but even when doing her best Anakin Skywalker cosplay, she made it home safe. Probably should've packed more sunscreen, though...

"The United States has finally.. found her purpose." "From Osea and America, Israel and Arabia!" Prometheus, they say, brought God’s fire down to man And we’ve caught it, tamed it, trained it since our history began Now we’re going up to Heaven just to look Him in the eye Up our Fighter goes, see that ASAT in the sky Belenko was the first back in 19-seven’six When, like Cipher, like a man, he wished for a new life fix He knew he might get shot down, ‘cause it’s never hard to die But he split from his crew and rode that fighter in the sky. But before that, a tough one called and we vowed to beat it back And we gave ourselves a decade to go and challenge the Foxbat And Irv Burrows proved the US, we can do it if we try There was one afterburner and a fighter in the sky! And three decades from the Mustang, Thirty two from yesterday Came a fighter christened Eagle to come open up the way And they said she’s a missile truck, but she’s a missile truck aimin’ high! See her big jets burning, see that fighter in the sky! Yet the gods do not give lightly, of the powers they have gave, And over the skies of the Negev desert, once again the price was paid. Israel watched two falling, and it killed our will to fly But 957 landed safely, from that fire in the sky! After Foxhound came in, we knew again we’d have to try But Hyvonen had fallen, ‘cross that Scottish morning sky Though we all must move on someday so now we raise our eyes To our brand new EX, with her AMRAAMs in the sky! With over a hundred to zero, she knew she needn’t try But even so, we still gave C a goodbye Seventy-four years later, our Eagle still can fly This ancient bird’s afterburner - Her (improved!) fire in the sky! See that fighter in the sky? Now the most grandiose of fighters, we have built and now we fly And they land themselves safely, and fight again in places high And now we look to leave our cradle, to take the place of absentees With our Eagle still living, all from A to Silent E! See the rest is up to us - there’s a future to be won We must turn our faces outward, we will do what must be done For we say hello to Raptor, Eagles evn’tually learn to fly And she’s goin’ to the stars, see her fire in the sky Yes, she’s going to the stars, see that fighter in the sky Yes I’ll Remember, ‘til I Die Our Fighter in the sky x2

A little bit edited with newer lyrics, love the originality of it though. I was expecting towards the end with a lower pitch and higher pitch voices, maybe an electric, different guitar playing different pitches, just to make the ending perfect, and although that is what I was expecting and would have enjoyed seeing it, you kept it original, like if the man just had his guitar and was just singing as he flew to mars. Absolutely stunning!
