NASA release The Sounds Of NASA Available For DownloadHistoric and interesting sounds and sound bites from NASA space missions are available for download as ringtones or on your computer for events, errors, alarms and notifications. The public can now 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 they get a phone call. A new NASA web page now has a collection of more than 35 different sounds, each approximately 20 seconds. Examples include: - Apollo 13's John "Jack" Swigert commenting "Houston, we've had a problem"
- Crackle of the historic last launch of the space shuttle, STS-135
- Segments from President John F. Kennedy's historic moon speech
- Sound wave conversions of the light curve waves created by stars discovered by NASA’s Kepler mission and other sounds of planets and stars
"NASA has been making historic sounds for over 50 years," said Jerry Colen, NASA App project manager at the agency's Ames Research Center in Moffett Field, Calif. "Now we're making some of these memorable sounds easy to find and use." The NASA sounds are available in both MP3 and M4R (iPhone) files. NASA will update the collection as new sounds become available. |

Beat me to it! I was just about to post this. The good news is that these can easily be used on an iPhone or Android Phone (via the NASA Android App). Windows Phone Users like me will have the ability to use them following the "Mango" update which begins Sept 27th!"that's one small step to a cooler phone!" |

I know basically nothing about this sort of thing, but a few years ago before I got a smartphone, my boyfriend would make sound clips and send them from his email to my phone via text. The sound clip was attached to the text and I could then save the sound clip to the phone. Possible you could do something like that? |

I've been making them into downloadable ringtones using a site called Phonezoo because that's the way I could get them. To create an account, you have to put you phone number and phone type in. Once I get all of them on the site and they are confirmed, I'll post the link. They send them to you as a textSomeone already made one of the second Saturn one. Also the Houston, we've had a problem. |

Thanks for your responses guys. Alas the dinosaur 3315 that I own only does the monotone ring tones. I'm a bit of a Luddite and its a phone that works. |

Here is the main search for NASA. Look for the ones with my username and those are all the ringtones. |
