Default ISS...Cool concept left hanging

We caught ISS the other night. It was a really interesting concept- stunning- likely true to life- visuals on the big screen were the big draw.

While scientists on the ISS, together in brotherly love watch WW3 take place, each side plots to take over the station. The movie was over before I knew it with the ending not really bringing resolution. Perhaps they're looking to do a sequel? Anyway, it was entertaining enough.

I give it a 6/10. Some language and kids over 13 may enjoy it...maybe?

that's super cool. I remember on one of my visits to the Cape (used to live in Orlando proper while training back in early 1999). The tour took us thru one of the labs where the first ISS module was nearly complete.

We used to go meet with engineers at JSC during college and then I was able to do a 3 month project at GSFC as well which included traveling to a lot of the other space centers, which was pretty awesome. This was the training module for Unity back in 2003. Good times for a nerd in college



But, what I found almost equally as cool was going into the aircraft they transport this stuff around in. The Super Guppy is like a giant baked potato with wings lol

. I tried to get pics inside of it but it had a load in it and getting pics in there was tough
