Second is the row of five identical blue-uniformed, blue-capped young men standing in a tight line behind an orange fireball that carries the red THUNDERBIRDS lettering. A pale blue retro gauge-and-speaker control panel occupies the entire bottom third, with a large blank black rectangular screen in the middle.
