Visuals: There are some footage of Apollo 11 launching into space and Neil Armstrong stepping out, leading to images of Neil Armstrong putting up a flag. The flag has the MTV logo (a big blocky "M" with a scribble "TV" next to it, and "MUSIC TELEVISION" underneath) and the logo on the flag changes different colors.
Trivia: This is essentially a truncated version of MTV's first sign-on sequence from August 1, 1981; the main difference, aside from it being shorter, is the absence of a voiceover.
Variant: A much shorter version exists.
Technique: A mix of live-action footage and photomontage by Perpetual Motion Pictures (now Buzzco Associates).
Audio: A rocket launching sound, followed by beeping and a rock theme composed by Jonathan Elias.
Audio Variants:
- A prototype version of this ID played Neil Armstrong's "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind" quote before the rock theme. This was never used on air due to MTV needing permission to use the quote.
- When this first aired during MTV's launch on August 1, 1981, John Lack (executive vice-president of Warner-Amex Satellite Entertainment) said "Ladies and gentlemen, rock and roll" before the rock theme.
- The short version uses a different synth theme.
Legacy: This is a favorite of many, as it was the very first ident shown on MTV.
