How to Operate the Hubble Space Telescope

Posted by

Have you ever wondered how +NASA and the Space Telescope Science Institute actually drive Hubble?  How do we point it? How do we get the data down from orbit? How do we communicate with it? How do we know when something goes wrong and what do we do about it?

Please join +Tony Darnell Dr +Carol Christian  and +Scott Lewis as we talk with the engineers/scientists from +NASA Goddard who operate our beloved Hubble Space Telescope.

Bring your questions and comments and we’ll read them on air throughout the hangout!

*Special Note*

Our own Dr. +Jason Kalirai has been nominated for a Listener Choice Award for an audio segment on Exploring Exoplanets released last July.

Please show your support for the #JWST mission by listening to his segment here

Adam West Reveals Things You Didn’t Know About Batman! – CineFix Now

Posted by

We sat down with the original Batman himself, Adam West to talk about the new collector’s edition Blu-Ray Set (available now!), and some of the crazy things we’d heard about him and the production of the show. Subscribe: http://goo.gl/9AGRm

We asked Mr. West to confirm or deny some of the rumors and little-known trivia surrounding the Batman 1966 TV show, its production, and the man himself, including:
How many different Batmobiles were used on the show? Is it’s true he’s the only actor that’s been the appropriate height to play Batman? Could he have played James Bond as well?

Batman: The Complete Series, is NOW AVAILABLE on Blu-Ray, and it comes with all sorts of neat features. Like a singing box, and a little toy Batmobile!

Did you know any of this Batman trivia already? What would you like to ask Adam West, if you had the chance? Would you have liked to see him play James Bond (or be the Beatles?) Are you going to grab the Blu-Ray, now that it’s available? Any other classic shows you’d like to get the Collector’s Edition Treatment?

Let us know in the comments below!
