Major Tom is a fictional astronaut referenced in David Bowie's songs Space Oddity, Ashes to Ashes, Hallo Spaceboy (particularly in the remix by the Pet Shop Boys) and possibly Blackstar (in the music video and interpreted from the lyrics).
The song is about the launch of Major Tom, a fictional astronaut, and was released during a period of great interest in space flight. The United States' Apollo 11 mission would launch five days later and would become the first manned moon landing another five days after that.
