SpaceCamp (soundtrack)

The soundtrack to SpaceCamp is a release of the film's musical score by John Williams, first released on 45 and LP in 1986, and reissued on CD in 1992 and again in 2010.^[1] Although originally released on LP in the United States in 1986 by RCA Victor, it was withdrawn from the market^{[citation needed]} because of the film's unintentional similarities to the Challenger accident that had happened the same year. RCA Records' German LP release and Japanese 45 release were not likewise affected. A limited Japanese printing of 1000 CDs was re-released in 1992, and the Intrada Special Collection limited a CD printing to 3000 copies in 2010.^[2] Intrada Records released a 2-disk remastered and expanded soundtrack in May 2022, containing both the complete score from the film and the original soundtrack album.
