To celebrate this year’s Asteroid Day, Fundación Chilena de Astronomía hosted an online music contest. Participants were asked to write and perform a song of less than two minutes, with lyrics about why asteroids are important. The story that they told could be either a factual or fictional story.
Contestants could include family members in the performance of their works as well.
Congratulations to first place winner Rodrigo Qowasi for his original song “Asteroids”. See all the winners here. Rodrigo also has a YouTube channel of his other music here.
