* "For Her Atoms" (Lydia Kavina (Theremin), Misha Malin)
 
In the liner notes, Eno describes his experience of watching the [[Apollo 11]] landing in 1969 and his sense that the strangeness of the event was compromised by the low quality of the television transmission and an excess of journalists' commentary. He thus wished to avoid the melodramatic and uptempo way the event was presented. That philosophy dominated when ''For All Mankind'' (''Apollo'') was originally released as a non-narrative collection of [[NASA]] stock footage from the [[Apollo program]]. The [[non-narrative film|non-narrative version of the film]] with the Eno soundtrack was released on VHS video in 1990 by the [[National Geographic Society]]. An alternative version was also released by NASA featuring audio interviews but omitting the Brian Eno soundtrack.
 
The album was released on 29 July 1983 by [[EG Records]].<ref name=MWJul83>{{cite news |title=New{{nbsp}}Albums|location=London|page=25|editor-last=Burbeck|editor-first=Rodney |url=https://worldradiohistory.com/hd2/IDX-UK/Music/Archive-Music-Week-IDX/IDX/1983/Music-Week-1983-07-30-IDX-25.pdf |work=[[Music Week]] |publisher=Morgan-Grampian |date=30 July 1983}}</ref><ref name=CBAug83>{{cite news |title=International{{nbsp}}Dateline |url=https://worldradiohistory.com/hd2/IDX-Business/Music/Archive-Cash-Box-IDX/80s/1983/CB-1983-08-06-OCR-Page-0024.pdf|location=New York|editor-last=Imamura|editor-first=Richard|page=24|publisher=Cash Box Publishing Co.|work=[[Cashbox (magazine)|Cash Box]] |date=6 August 1983}}</ref> A release in the US followed in September 1983.<ref name=BBSep83>{{cite news |title=New LP/Tape Releases |url=https://worldradiohistory.com/hd2/IDX-Business/Music/Billboard-Index/IDX/1983/1983-09-17-Billboard-Page-0044.pdf|editor-last=White|editor-first=Adam|location=New York|page=60|work=[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]] |publisher=Billboard Publications |date=17 September 1983}}</ref>
