David Bowie debuted his Ziggy Stardust persona and released <em>The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars</em> in 1972 — the last year humans went to the moon.

The Artemis II mission is the first time humans have headed to the moon since 1972. That year also marked the debut of The Godfather and the Egg McMuffin.
