As if there hasn't been enough bizarreness of late, them Pitchfork boys report that Jack White's Third Man label is releasing John Boswell's 'A Glorious Dawn' as a 7". If you haven't heard, 'A Glorious Dawn' is that spacey YouTube meme which surfaced a while ago, featuring pop astronomers Carl Sagan and Stephen Hawking Auto-Tuned and spaced out. 

 

 

If this is an homage then more power to White. If it is a pisstake, then this postmodern "my dad is odder than your dad ROFL" contest has to stop now, since Sagan is a godlike figure, without whom our knowledge of space would be retarded, and the SETI project would be dead in the mud.

Ok, no need for us to get riled up. It is an homage. On the Third Man site, it says that one side of the vinyl will have an etching from the Voyager Golden Record, and the 9 November release date is what would be the late Sagan's 75th birthday.
