LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT 2.0 - Jupiter, the story of a Foo Fighter

Dedicated to the fabulous LEGO MINDSTORMS Team!

Jupiter is equipped with one NXT and it is remotely controlled (over bluetooth) by a helmet-like device (a second NXT). Both Jupiter and the alien that
controls it (that's me) will visit LEGO WORLD 2010, Zwolle, The Netherlands. I'll be more than happy to meet you in person.

The story-line is fictional (Copyright 2010, Vassilis Chryssanthakopoulos, Athens, Greece). Some tips on the story line:

- Foo Fighters were indeed reported during WW II
- Follow the coordinates indicated at 0:25 ...you'll travel to a magic place!
- The Carpenter is a real person (can you guess who?)
- These (1:22) are real schematics and source code of the NXT
- Jupiter in Roman Mythology is the sky god associated with thunder and lightning. In astronomy is a planet -a gas giant- and one of the brightest objects in the night sky. It looks ORANGE! Both facts are very foo fighter-like!!!
- Planet Gliese 581 g is likely to be inhabitable. Recently discovered, so read the news!
