No, that isn’t a typo. I’m aware of all the hype flying around about that other vintage sci fi series and its hot-shot new movie, but right now I couldn’t care less. Why? Because I just enjoyed one of the wonderful little moments that we fathers born in the early seventies can cherish: I just sat down and watched the original Star Wars (Episode IV) with my young son for the first time.

Very nice Ben! I suspect space and space exploration came of age in the last century. For me it was reading Jules Verne's "Journey to the moon, in the 1940's and then seeing the movie on a saturday afternoon at the "pictures," in England.

Hi Colin - and you got to see your early sci-fi exposure become reality. I guess I just have to hope that no Death Stars get built!
Ha! The idea of building a Death Star was indeed recently mooted in the US - until the administration stepped in: https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/resp...
