Stephen Hawking's Last Research Paper

The article has a wonderful Starman reference right in the beginning. I won't spoil it for you, but it's worth a read. https://www.cnn.com/2018/05/02/us/stephen-hawking-big-bang/index.html - Blue Lights, Bruce

STARMAN series featured on Forgotten TV podcast
by Todd Andrews 09 May '18

09 May '18

Hi All, Chris Cooling, the host and producer of the Forgotten TV podcast <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Podcast>, contacted SSI through our website last September, seeking information about STARMAN and our organization. Yesterday he published his episode on STARMAN. It is audio-only, a little over an hour long, and you can listen to it using a web browser by going here <http://www.forgotten.tv/2018/05/forgotten-tv-episode-20-starman.html> and clicking on the green play button as indicated by the red arrow below: You can also listen to the episode using your favorite podcast player (iTunes, Stitcher, TuneIn, Amazon Alexa, etc.). His research turned up some interesting bits of trivia about STARMAN that I don't think has been known to us previously. Chris does a "deep dive" of shows from the 70s and 80s and is quite thorough in his research. Be sure to check out his other episodes covering TV shows and made-for-TV movies from the same era. Regarding Chris, yes, "He's one of ours, all right." :D

Starman-The Return
by Annette Beaty 07 May '18

07 May '18

To anyone else considering buying the book "Starman-The Return" about Jenny after Starman leaves, save your money. Unfortunately, it's not well written at all. I was really hoping this might be a good one, but I couldn't even get passed the prologue (basically a recap of the last half of the movie). Annette

Enjoyed listening to the podcast. May I ask if anyone knows the feel/tone Season 2 would have taken based from the eight scripts? I was quite excited learning about the first 2 episode titles. Oh, wow, if it was only possible for a summary about those episodes.

And thanks to Todd for his contributions and letting us know of this. A wonderful stroll down memory lane with a few tidbits of new facts thrown in, previously unknown to me at least. This one is well worth taking the time to listen to. One very intriguing comment comes at around 37 minutes into the podcast. Chris mentions that 8 scripts had been written for Season 2, the first two of which we know exist. Anyone know if the remaining 6 ever saw the light of day, even if in early rough sketch form?

: Link for HD Earth viewing experiment

Hello to everyone. I sent this link to Todd since he’s practically my next door neighbor; for his approval. So now I’m sending it along to all of you. Since I sent the link I’ve gotten a bit better at recognizing some of the geography as it passes by quickly. You’ll want to bookmark this page it can be addicting. As I click on send the view from overhead is of clouds pinking up for a sunset. Don’t miss it. Regards, Margie T.

It was featured in this month’s Sky and Telescope Magazine. Now I’m no map maker and have only been watching for a week but it’s really cool. A sunrise and a sunset every 90 minutes. Switching camera’s right now so I think I missed the sunrise somewhere. Haven’t been able to pick out actual locations below but I think I’ll get better at it as I watch. Since it is in real time there is a counter that shows how many people are watching world wide. https://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/nasatv/#iss This is the view Starman would have had entering Earth Orbit.

Please don't regret posting about it. I'm sure when you came across it, you didn't stop what you were doing to start reading it to realize how poorly it was written, and just wanted to pass a great find on to all of us. I went and immediately bought it, like several other people did, and I just wanted to save anyone else from wasting $5, or in the case of the paperback, $20 dollars. To anyone who can read past all of the glaring errors and mistakes, I commend you. I just can't do it. It drives me bananas when I see an author who has published through any of the big publishing groups have a typo in their book, but this one is obviously self published (not to say that everyone who self publishes through Amazon, etc, would have this many errors). I'm rather surprised she was able to get away with publishing this, as it's also very obvious it's not licensed. Unfortunately, it's just very poorly written fan fiction and should only have been posted to fan fiction sites.

I for one am glad you posted it. Each of us has different tastes when it come to books. I loved the movie, I loved the series and look forward to books written regarding movie or series. I do follow amazon reviews to a degree but usually make up my own mind.

I'm very glad you are able to get past all of the misused words, typos/misspellings, repetitious sentences, but that type of writing detracts from the story and drives me up the wall.
