Lee Jay - 7/5/2007 9:17 AM Wow. From the thread title I had a flash of Orion mounted to *Shuttle* Discovery's nose or something! Should be an interesting program. I wonder how many exaggerations and outright errors it has.
Considering how fast things can(and have) changed with the design the odds are there will be a few errors. I can nearly put money on it they won't have the 606 design info we got in L2 today.

Wolverine - 8/5/2007 3:11 AMSadly, not all of us have the disposable income to subscribe to L2, and since I moved and had to change cable providers, I actually lost Disc Science and National Geographic channel, yet pay the same.

We always aim to feed as much L2 into the rest of the site (for example, the article on site right now is pretty much a round up of the shuttle processing information on L2 the same day).With these major changes through the transition of Orion 605 to Orion 606, we'll write an article and release some of the (now a lot of) images, graphics and cutaway schematics into the rest of the site.That's the idea. We intend for the whole site to be kick ass, with L2 - which is about 40gb of info now) being even more so. We - like a lot of other sites nowadays - need revenue streams to pay for the costs of running it. Gone are the days where advertising covers things. Some sites ask you to pay for their news articles, some for their videos. We feel our subscription area is the best for space flight by far, allowing the rest of the site to do for free what others charge for.I absolutely know what people mean when they say money is tight, so I try and find a happy balance as much as possible.

SpaceReader - 9/5/2007 4:28 PMI thought the three "Space Week" episodes so far have been disappointing. This includes “Spaceship Orion”. They seem to be almost amateur productions. Did anyone else get this sense, or do you think maybe my expectations were too high to begin with?
