The period when NASA is expected to lose signal with Artemis II while it orbits around the dark side of the moon is 41 minutes long.
Pink Floyd's album, "Dark Side of the Moon" is 42 minutes and 50 seconds long.
Could the orbiter just tap the brakes... just a bit?

@shawnhooper If they'd made a vid of them chilling to that as they went around the other side, it would probably, with no irony intended, become the coolest music vid ever. Right up there with Chris Hadfield playing _Space Oddity_.
