Nasa Animations: Who's the animator?
I've been watching 'Failure Is Not An Option', about Mission
Control, on the History International channel. Among the stock footage used, particularly for Mercury and Gemini coverage, were various bits of NASA animation, showing approximations to what things like the Gemini 7/6 rendezvous should look like. Do we know who produced these animations? Was it a contract out to the side of Disney that did all those educational films, was it to some smaller company, was it in-house? Who was the director? Who was doing the detailed work? -- Joseph Nebus ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |

Nasa Animations: Who's the animator?
Just like in them good old NASA/Apollo days, it's strictly need-to-
know and otherwise highly nondisclosure rated. You don't need to know, and if you ever found out they've have to kill you (perhaps via sudden brain tumor). .. - Brad Guth Joseph Nebus wrote: I've been watching 'Failure Is Not An Option', about Mission Control, on the History International channel.

Ah ... well, it's frustrating to not be able to get more complete and more definitive answers, but at least there's something. I suppose I'll have to console myself with the copy of Henry S F Cooper's _A House In Space_ that I got at a library book sale for a dollar, which has me really delighted. (Also a paperback of John Noble Wilforth's _We Reach The Moon_ for fifty cents, and some stuff that hasn't got anything to do with space.) -- Joseph Nebus ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
