A couple of years ago we had a mostly favorable discussion here on Spiceworks about working on a data center on the moon. Well, they just completed the first lunar landing: Lunar data center intact despite lunar lander’s botched landing. They were supposed to transmit a song–Children of the Sky by Imagine Dragons but the botched landing prevented that from happening.

Personally, I think they could have selected a better song. How about Moondance by Van Morrison or maybe Bad Moon Rising by CCR? Both appear on our IT After Dark Spotify playlist. Or how about Walking on the Moon by the Police or Space Oddity by David Bowie? Something from the Tron or Blade Runner soundtracks would be great as well.

What song would you broadcast from the moon?

Naturally, we have an epic moon-based IT pro story: IT Heroes and the Battle for Moon Base ID10T

This probably speaks to a character flaw, but just because it would irritate the absolute hell out of everyone :joy:.

Wow, a lot of cool suggestions, but I keep coming back to this one. If you’re promoting moving to/living on the moon, you could do a lot worse than these lyrics.

Walking on the moon
We could walk forever
Walking on the moon
We could be together
Walking on, walking on the moon

Ah you beat me to it. Dark Side of the Moon would have been my vote as well.

Forget music, they should have broadcast the commercial for Life Alert: “Help! I’ve fallen and I can’t get up!”
