Steve Collins Encounters Mars (in 3-D)

[beamjockey]

As I mentioned to dragonet2, C-SPAN captured a nice story told at JPL by the estimable Steve Collins, spacecraft wrangler, in 2005.

C-SPAN's clip-embedding doesn't appear to work on LJ (at least, not this week), so go here. The page will want to create a popup window with a Flash player. I've marked Steve's part of the symposium, which starts around minute 38 and goes to the end.

Thanks I've embedded it on my LJ with a reference to you. You'd thing knuckle dragging 90's IT goons would get a clue about popups. If you click the flash icon firefox will open it but the IT goon has locked out the back button.
