  1. Is that telescope a series of tubes?

    At 00:16:12 the one man IT department says...
    4.5 miles in diameter
    6 billion tons
    17,500 miles PER SECOND?????
    1/10th the speed of light?
    (Dang! The script writer missed a decimal point or 5.)
    17,500 mph is orbital velocity.
    About 5 miles per second.

    Well to be honest, 0.1c is about right to reach Earth from the asteroid belt in 16 hours.

    Worried about asteroid collision?
    3 V2s!
    The tricky part is getting them out of the museums.

    Isn't that Doctor Stern (pretty easy going with electroshock therapy!)
    a villain from the serials?
    Too bad he keeps a substation in his office!

    Novos Electro!

    So.... Kronos just needs the NAME of its target?
    Not a map?


    Nice to see it in 'Regalscope'!

  2. jayessell: a thing you missed. Anyone who anthropomorphizes a computer to such an extent, and does not use words that must be avoided in a multi-gender/children present context, needs either to have his head examined, or a quick language lesson from a member of the US or any other (probably not French) Navy.

Rules for submitting comments:

1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.

2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.

3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.

4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.

Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.

Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.
