I have a killer PPT that tracks the history of manned spaceflight that I give to my kids's classes, which includes a 30-slide build of the ISS (International Space Station), so I'm a rare person who instantly recognizes the form. Last night I watched a cable station that seemed to be a sort of NASA-ISS CNN. A weird case of out-of-sight, out-of-mind for most people, but since I plan on dying somewhere off this planet (it's the Kirk in me), I remain fascinated.
