[Elecraft] Klaatu

    I watched the movie about a month ago.  The special effects hold up  
well and the story is interesting.  I remember the first time I saw it but  
viewing it again was fun.  I have always wondered about the damaged gift  
to the nations.  Oh, and the mass of equations on the professor's  
blackboard?  I stopped the movie on those frames and went through them.   
They were accurate descriptions of orbital mechanics.  I am always annoyed  
when math is flashed on a screen in a movie and it is incorrect.  I was  
pleasantly surprised when I worked through this blackboard's worth and  
found them accurate and entertaining.
