Foreground: A lamp post with speakers, as they were used in the Soviet Union for broadcasting public announcements.

Background: A busy square with trolleybuses, typical means of transport in Soviet Moscow, and passersby. Atmosphere: A mixture of everyday life and great national enthusiasm – people are experiencing one of the greatest moments in Soviet space history.
