White Noise Over the Moon

In 1980, small-town ham operators catch a recurring lunar broadcast — a warped, musical static that erases tape and sanity. The Pentagon's hush-hush Program LUCID deployed a relay on the Moon to test psychological warfare; its experiments begin bleeding into off-air TV and late-night radio, turning viewers into hollow, sleepwalking witnesses. A disgraced reporter, an overworked lab tech, and a Cold War general follow garbled transmissions to a desert tracking station where reel-to-reel tapes scream and the 'distortion' reveals what the Moon was designed to hide. Paranoia, analog horror, and military secrets collide.
