A defining moment when you know that your favorite television program has
reached its peak. That instant that you know from now on...it's all downhill.
In fairness, that doesn't say that the show reached its peak at that moment. It just says that you have at that moment realised that the peak has already been reached. So your reaction could be, OMG - they can NEVER top that; or it could be, OMG - there's just no saving this show now, is there...
Adding 'n' to a word to get the plural is a Dutch (and probably other languages) formation, borrowed for those few words in English because we English can never bear to see a word or technique used in a language without trying it out.
We have a magazine available in NZ called Consumer that's released by a consumer watchdog group. I used to get it, but then I read an article on buying the right computer for you one day. It was so badly flawed that I could never trust their advice on buying anything else. I was already irritated by their emphasis on things being 'easy to use'. Surely it's more important that your video last a few years than it be easy to program?!
Seems to me that applies not just to media but to anyone who's peripherially involved in a technical field - hands up who's ever been interviewed by an agent who didn't know the first thing; didn't ask the right questions; and was completely unqualified to recommend you as a candidate.

NASA needs good PR as much as it needs good science. And that's not even necessarily a bad thing.
I'm surprised they haven't corrected to 'visible light'-adjusted photos.
