On July 20, 1969, the Verne 5 mission landed on the Moon, shortly after Major Thomas Bowie exited the LM and uttered his first words on Earth's satellite:

"There is a Latin phrase that reads 'Per aspera ad astra' - Through hardships, to the stars. May these words be a good omen for the future of all mankind."

After these words, he planted the flag of the Earth Union on the lunar surface, profoundly shaping the future of human history.

Flag inspired by the Italian comic/satirical movie Fascisti su Marte (Fascists on Mars)
