Sinatra recorded the song in 1964 for his album "It Might as Well Be Swing," arranged by Quincy Jones and featuring the Count Basie Orchestra. This version is particularly famous for its association with the Apollo missions.

Fly Me to the Moon, was played on the Apollo 10 mission and later on Apollo 11. Buzz Aldrin played it on a portable cassette player after he and Neil Armstrong landed on the moon. But the song's lyrics express a romantic longing to be taken on a journey to the moon and beyond, using the metaphor of space travel to convey a sense of wonder and aspiration.
