NASA Releases Historical Sound Bites as Ringtones

NASA Logo

NASA has released a collection of famous sounds and commentaries that can be used as ringtones or as computer notification noises.


NASA has been going through its audio archives and come up with a selection of what it’s calling “historic and interesting sounds” that can be used as ringtones or computer notification noises.


Imagine that, every time your phone rings, you could have Neil Armstrong piping up with the immortal line: “One small step for (a) man, one giant leap for mankind.”


“NASA has been making historic sounds for over 50 years” NASA App project manager Jerry Colen said in a press release. “Now we’re making some of these memorable sounds easy to find and use.”


The sounds have been arranged into four categories: Shuttle and Station, Apollo and Mercury, Current Missions, Beeps and Bytes. In total, 36 clips are available for download.


Lines you might recognize include “The Eagle has landed” and “Houston, we’ve had a problem.” There’s also a clip from JFK’s historic moon speech.


The sounds have been made available in MP3 and M4R formats.

Rihanna - S&M - Video

Rihanna released her "favourite ever" (as she said) video.


The video is for the "S&M" song and it's pretty colorful and dynamic. In it we can see lots of latex, red hair, sado-maso, candies, high heels and self-irony, painted in to the most incredibly fresh colors.


The "Rude Boy" hitmaker shot the video in Los Angeles, two weeks ago. Video director is the cuban with greek blood Melina Matsoukas, which also directed hits like "Rude Boy", "Rockstar 101" and "Hard".
The video was inspired by RiRi's "sadomasochist relationship with the press... it isn't just about a bunch of whips and chains", said Matsoukas. Although we see lots of "whips and chains" in this video, we still believe that they should be recognized with ironical meaning.


"S&M" is the third single from Rihanna's last album - "Loud". We think that this will be another chart-topper, following the success of "What's My Name" and "Only Girl (In The World)"


Enough talking about the video, let's see it :
