Thumbs up Re: Moon rising

A few weeks ago, James May of Top Gear did a program called James May on the Moon. In the program he interviewed 3 men who had been to the moon. James also was able to go up in a U2 to a point in the sky where they are borderline in Earth's atmosphere and can see space above the horizon. Needless to say, the experience definitely gave James the "God moment" and at the end he says that if everyone were to go up there once in their life, the world would be completely different for the good.

Here's a clip from Youtube of his trip.

And here is a link to the torrent of the full show plus a 30 minute episode detailing his training for the flight.

The torrent is good. It's the one I downloaded, plus it's released by the guys over at Final Gear, a Top Gear and Fifth Gear fan site.
