brain briefly thought you meant the ST series. :-)

[ironymaiden]

someone in the Q&A did ask what the mission team thought about Star Trek The Motion Picture. it made some people sad.

[buhrger]

i sorta partly get that — TOS was a big inspiration for some folks who got into NASA. but, yeah, you'd think there'd be other things they could talk about.

[ironymaiden]

Oh, no! It made some of the mission team sad to think about sad lonely Voyager.
