Space is, of course, the final frontier, and after Iron Maiden’s mascot Eddie conquered a battlefield, a rubber room, and Egypt, where else to send him but to space? The lyrics of the title track of Iron Maiden’s 15th album explore the lost in space theme of David Bowie’s “Space Oddity,” but an evil Eddie (like there’s a benevolent one!) shows up in the video anyway.
