Based on the Deep
Impact mission in which scientists crashed a probe into a comet at
approximately 23,000 mph, the composer writes, "So what would it
be like if someone could actually grab on to one of these comets and
take a ride through the solar system?" Conveying that very
feeling, the work begins with a sighting of the comet, then takes off
on a wild roller-coaster ride, including glimpses of the sheer beauty
of outer space. Hold on for the ride of your life!
