Periodically I've seen requests for various "space pictures," whether videos or machine-readable images, posters or books. In September's NASA Tech Briefs, page 82 has an ad for 4 different Space Videotapes. 1. "The Universe" - described as general intro of some sort. 2. "The Voyager Missions" - the planets "as seen through the eyes of the Voyager 1 and 2". 3. "Landing on Mars" - from Viking. 4. "Space Shuttle - Satellite Rescue" - Columbia goes to fetch a satellite. They're about 30 mins apiece; the first 2 are about $30, the last 2 about $20. I have NO IDEA how good they are - this is the first I've seen of it, or of NASA Tech Briefs, for that matter. Address - NASA Tech Briefs, 41 East 42nd Street, NY NY 10017. (They put the videos out themselves, it seems.) Hope it helps. (Gee, we've gotta get a VCR one of these days.) Robin LaPasha ruslan@ecsvax.uncecs.edu Like I said - haven't bought or seen them, don't know... just FYI.

I recall seeing at least the latter two tapes at local K-Marts for $9.99 each. In addition, I also saw an Apollo XI mission tape for the same price. I promise to get details during my next visit... -- Eric Cotton Commodore-Amiga (215) 431-9100 1200 Wilson Drive {rutgers|allegra}!cbmvax!eric West Chester, PA 19380 "I don't find this stuff amusing anymore."
