Russian boffins have lost control of a satellite containing sex-crazed geckos - like there's any other kind - sent on a mission to hold a zero gravity orgy.

They're going to start a new lizard-based civilisation on a far and distant planet. However, after some time, a group of them (led by The lizard Hon Rubbard) will start a belief system that insists some of them are secretly mammals living in Lizard Skin.
That's what will happen, and watch out when Com Truise, a famous all-action Lizard decides to take on the universe.
As a keeper of crested geckos, I can attest they make some impressively loud screechy-clicky sounds during their nocturnal escapades. But the one question yet to be answered by all this is... why? Did a research proposal put in as an April Fools joke somehow receive funding? Don't let anyone tell you Russians don't have a sense of humour...
A number of less-than-fortunate consequences may follow from this. Many of them sound like the names of films, like "The Geckos came from Outer Space" or "Invasion of the Geckos". Of course the worst one would be "Invasion of the Lizard People".
Oops, I think we may have had that one already...
