A cool interview with Kevin Frazier a NASA scientist, and the science consultant for the TV shows Battlestar Galactica and Eureka.

Had to watch 2010 again after Dr. Frazier's comment that this movie got all the science right...

I liked 2010 but the book was so much better. 2060 was average at best.
Ripley: Ash. Any suggestions from you or Mother?
Ash: No, we're still collating.
Ripley: [Laughing in disbelief] You're what? You're still collating? I find that hard to believe.

I thought it interesting that the"Discovery" was coated in sulfur when they found it.

From IMDB User Comments:
"2010 hasn't enjoyed the staying power of its contemporary brethren (Blade Runner, 1982; the Star Wars trilogy, 1977-1983; Alien/Aliens, 1979, 1986) and is a circle-square comparison to 2001. But it holds its own in many respects and is worth a few repeated viewings"
