I love Karen's voice.  But not this song.

Red Barchetta -- Rush

Any space opera by Ayreon, my favorite is 'into the electric castle' but 
'01011001' or e.g. 'the universal migrator' might do as well

Quite a lot from Eloy (no that is not a typo) e.g. from the album 
'Planets' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bus65ovjOOg

not sure if
The Ancient (Giants under the Sun) -- Yes
counts. Possibly my most favorite Yes song

and if you allow fantasy as well: try the album Wintersmith by Steeleye Span

Listening to it now.  Sounds interesting so far, but nothing really jumps out
yet.

Too long.  It's like how I wanted to add Tubular bells to my halloween
soundtrack, but the song is 45 minutes long.

That's a whole different playlist.

Loving the suggestions, even if I don't use them all right now.  They'd make
great stuff for an internet radio station.

Mostly, I'm looking for stuff with a solid SF connection, not just a spacey
sound.  Otherwise I could use quite a bit of Mannheim Steamroller's Fresh Aire
albums.

So far I've gotten most of my stuff from soundtracks, so I'm trying to keep an
eye out for stuff that has SF-themed lyrics or some other connection.  I've
thought about Elton John's Rocket Man, but I'm not sure where I'd fit it in
right now.  Another one I've thought about is Silent Running by Mike and the
Mechanics, which sounds more like an entry for my Revolution playlist, until you
watch the music video.  Of course, there's no reason it can't be on both.

Some other ideas, assuming I could find them as MP3s would be stuff from
Animusic. For instance:

Heavy Light: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DKUTYxJEB44

Fiber Bundles: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M6r4pAqOBDY

Harmonic Voltage: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7--cT9d81uQ

That's what makes this song so freaky.

Oooh, very nice AND silly, and yet somehow oddly reminiscent of this:

Well, if you're going to go _there_, then you might as well get all 
scientific and go _here_:

Wow and wow again.  Very nice.  Sitting here listening and wishing I 
might have heard this when it and I were very much newer.

Indeed! And in that same vein, worth re-listening to Tangerine Dream and 
Klaus Schultze, my favourites of the time:
