scienceTASTIC Episode 022 - Space, Lies and Videotape

stThumbLSThis episode of scienceTASTIC was scheduled to be a blockbuster, but due to reasons we fully explain (and detail in photograph) we had to settle for it just being pretty fantastic. In honor of the 40th anniversary of the first moon landing it's also fairly space-centric, and Mark kicks things off with new images of the landing site. Mike briefly goes all Steve-Austin-bionic-eyeball* on us before Joe returns to the moon with some crisp, clean HD footage of the Apollo mission. Factor in chimps that can ape, autonomous rovers* and computing power from video games, and, yeah, 022 is pretty fantastic.

What we didn't get to: another rover, a new concept in gaming, and an ejection seat that will hopefully never get used.
