Notes
- Most of these instruments are played by the five starship robots. While they perform, the starship travels steadily through space. In the commentary, Wayne Lytle states that the robot that plays the red lead synth pad set looks like a female. "She" is also capable of actions and body language.
- The spaceship whirs throughout the piece, although not heard during the music itself, but at the beginning and end, and the stars don't move on the multi-angle.
