Sling it and player using a _large_ trebuchet. Have recording devices onboard and at several places along the trajectory (checks for Doppler effects, too). Tune piano in HT, have artist play Bach to see if it sounds like ET from the ground. Trajectory should be long and high enough to afford reasonable length of time in zero gravity. Target alignment not critical for subsonic flight, nor is flight attitude.
