"Random imagery OTD"
 
   If you've access to a copy of the HBO original From the Earth to the Moon (imagine if Apollo 13 had covered the entirety of Project Apollo - it's hella cool), there's a bit at title 2, chapter 10, time index 97:00 on DVD 1 (on VHS, I think it would be approximately 35 minutes into episode 4, 1968) which is pretty much exactly what Utena sees when she and Corwin emerge from the One-Hit Wonder's service airlock in Roses in Springtime.

(Of course, having put down all that fiddly information, it then and only then occurs to me that my DVD software does frame captures. :)

This impresses me especially because I hadn't actually watched episode 4 yet when I wrote that part; Zoner bought this set months ago, but I only got as far as episode 2 (Apollo 1) in my initial attempt at watching it. (Not that it isn't good, but episode 2's portrayal of the Apollo 1 disaster was so vivid that I had to stop for a while... )

..and for those interested, here's the real deal. Better quality image, at the very least. ;)

Mr. Fnord, still waiting for an Apollo documentary shot on location.
