Default Genesis return

Anyone know if the capture is going to be shown "live"?

http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/ge...ain/index.html

2 questions:

1: I remember reading somewhere that early spy satellites used to drop film
canisters that would re-enter, and then there would be mid-air captures. Was
I just reading science fiction?

2: Does anyone remember reading "Golden Apples of the Sun" by Ray Bradbury?
I think I'm going to have to dig up a copy and re-read it, just for this
mission.

Finally, if NASA is going to do a live show, they really, really should have
Ray Bradbury as a commentator for this.
