Checking popsike, it looks like it sells for an average price of $48, with better condition copies going for more, of course. Yours could easily fetch over $50 imo.
As was explained in the museum exhibit, this was a genre inspired by the early U.S. space program that began in 1958 and culminated in the moon landing in 1969. The music was often interesting, but for me it's the cover art of these LPs that is truly remarkable, and this one is a classic.
The best ones (like this one) seem to sell for real money, though I've seen lesser ones in the dollar bins.

He studied with Castelnuovo-Tedesco.
He filled in for an ill radio-show conductor and mightily impressed the director, an actor named Ronald Reagan. That led to much Hollywood work.
He worked on projects for Henry Mancini and Charlie Chapin, and worked on four Louis Armstrong albums including Porgy & Bess.
He did lots of work for film and television before abandoning his career to work for world peace, in the context of the Baha'i faith.

Maybe not quite in the same league as Henry Mancini or Lalo Schifrin, but part of that golden age. I discovered his Fantastica album at the museum exhibit I mentioned. Great stuff, no question.
