That must be so true as the armstrong landing in the moon!! Everytime Usa feels some menace they make something big. In the 60 was Sovietic Union menace, now its the China menace! Iam wondering if george Lucas helped them this time again to make the movie!

Hah - it is winter here !
Hey, if you're into space stuff - Perseids (Meteor shower) is this month, peaking Aug 12-13th, expected to be 100 per hour
that is alot. just hope there is some clear nights around that time. i doubt it tho, there hasnt been any for a few months now. all ive seen is the odd clear patch.
if your interested i go on a forum site called stargazerslounge.com mainly people from the uk on it but still a good site with lots of good info.
