Clouds across the moon

In Moscow earlier today, six men were released from their steel tubes where they had been living for a year and a half. They had been part of an experiment to ascertain the stresses, physical and psychological on the human body for when, at some time in the future, man travels to Mars.

To ensure that it was as realistic as possible, they even delayed any messages to and from the experiment by up to 25 minutes, which is how long a radio or text-based message would take to reach and return from Mars.

The image of clouds across the moon have been used many times - I remember the album cover for Godley & Creme's concept album of the 1970s called Consequences and the root of the blip title of course, by the Rah Band from 1985.
