Hold on one second. I'm only at 3:30 minutes and the girl didn't remember when the U.S. had their first EVA.

I don't mean to be a dick....... but how do you have a show about this stuff and not know such a basic piece of info?

ED WHITE was the astronaut on that EVA.

Maybe I am speaking to soon....I'm gonna continue watching....but...... seriously??!

Cariann is the non-space nerd. She is brought in from the general populations point of view and has been learning about space ever since Episode 1.02 (which was her first). She was searching for Gemini 4 but this was early on and as most Americans really only knew of the Apollo program (and still got the number wrong, which made me cringe a bit). Move forward a bit to a 2.00 series episode and she is getting a lot better.

It is kinda interesting to see the change from 1.01 through 2.34.

Someone in the chat at the bottom of the screen said 'Shunnnnn!' LOL!

utube will pretty much keep it at this quality anyway. best space show ever!!

[spacevidcast]

No matter the case, I'm glad you like the show. We're trying to improve on every one, so let me know what you would like to see and I'll try and make it happen (within reason). More news? More factoids? More interaction with people?

[tobitege]

I wish you'd also have a hi-res version available. Like your shows, very interesting and funny.

[spacevidcast]

Right now we're limited to 320x240 for live production. I'm working on upgrading the system to 1280x720, but it's basically a $12,000 upgrade to get us to that level.

Our on-demand shows (this was live) are all higher resolution, so it is only the weekly.

I hear ya though. The quality is painfully bad.

[tobitege]

Wow, I really had no clue how expensive that'd be. I'll watch your shows either way, thanks for taking the time and passion to produce them!

[planefreak3]

@spacevidcast is it the fact its a mac the reason its so expensive?

[eliteobserver]

You people are awesome!
