In the novel "Project Hail Mary" by Andy Weir, the eponymous spacecraft is equipped with four small unmanned spacecraft called "beetles," intended to be used to send data back to Earth in lieu of a radio transmitter. These beetles are named "John," "Paul," "George," and "Ringo," with a fifth testing article named "Pete" after the original Beatles drummer Pete Best.

This market resolves YES if, in the scene in the "Project Hail Mary" movie currently in development where the beetles are launched, a song written or performed by the Beatles is played. Note that covers by other artists of songs written by any of the Beatles count for a resolution, as do covers by any of the Beatles of songs written by other artists.

You should probably move back the close date so more people can bet.

@asmith Just moved it back to 2025. When the movie's release date is announced, I'll move it to that.
