Inon Zur described the experience as deeply moving and unforgettable. Witnessing the rocket launch carrying "Children of the Sky" was a momentous occasion for him and the project's collaborators.

Together, they witnessed this historic lunar mission, a significant achievement for music and space enthusiasts alike.
