Infection spreads beyond containment

The numbered uniforms worn by the Moonbase crew serve as a reminder of their roles and the hierarchy that governs their actions. During the crisis, the uniforms become a visual shorthand for the crew's unity and their adherence to protocol, even as the situation spirals out of control. The numbers on the uniforms also highlight the individuality of each crew member, making the technician's collapse a personal loss rather than an abstract event. Their presence in the scene underscores the human cost of the crisis.

Before: Worn by all crew members, including the collapsed technician.
