American space agency NASA has made available to the public over 60 audio samples recorded on various manned and unmanned space missions.

Uploaded to SoundCloud, the 62 files cover everything from cosmic weather on Jupiter, to the moon landing and other Apollo missions, to Kennedy promising a generation of people in the twentieth century they would live in the space age.

All of the audio files are available to be downloaded, meaning, as NASA points out, "You can hear the roar of a space shuttle launch or Neil Armstrong's 'one small step for [a] man, one giant leap for mankind' every time you get a phone call, if you make our sounds your ringtone. Or, you can hear the memorable words 'Houston, we've had a problem,' every time you make an error on your computer."

Space enthusiasts and NASA historians can also embed the audio files on Twitter, a service the social media network only recently began offering.
