I found another fun Veo 3 prompt: "Realistic footage of the moon landing, but it took place in [year]"
Here is 1883 AD, 1255 AD, 44 AD, 2300 BC, 30,000 BC, and 65 million years ago
Yes, there was apparently wind on the moon back then, you are just going to have suspend disbelief a bit.

Los inhibidores de los puntos de control inmunitario revierten la latencia del VIH y potencian la respuesta citotóxica frente a este virus. Esta acción dual hace de estos fármacos una atractiva estrategia en la investigación de la curación de las personas con VIH.
