Mr Director, I think it would be quite unrealistic in a film if a helicopter flew 10 meters over your head in a city like Sydney and nobody would take pictures...

Some weeks ago on Discovery Channel there was a documentary about the NK-33 and the old russian attempt to reach the moon. In fact, this RD-180 engine is based upon the NK-33 engine because the technology (after more than 20 years) was superior over american engines. I believe a launch was made with a American Delta rocket with one RD-180 engine instead of 4-5 american engines.

If we change time to a metric system, shouldn't we change kilobytes to 1000 instead of 1024 ?
If I offer you some money, could you buy Windows XP for me? Thanx :-)
