I missed it on the first viewing, but they have themselves some neptunium! Neptunium 237 is essential in the productions of plutonium 238. Unlike its brother plutonium 239 used in nuclear weapons, plutonium 238 is used for deep space exploration in RTG units. RTGs are the reason we can go beyond the asteroid belt! The curiosity rover will also be using an RTG as they are much more reliable than solar cells, especially on a notoriously dusty planet like mars.

Kinda worries me that the JPL people think there's sound in space...

Most of JPLs engineers were replaced by struggling CG artists.


Well once the Apollo "Moon Landing" was completed their entire cinematic department was looking for a gig.

Thanks sooo much for posting this animation. Man invented the wheel then, in the blink of an eye, sent that wheel to the unknown.
