Hello Everyone,

My program Eagle Lander 3D is a featured performer for the History Channel documentary about the Apollo 11 moon flight.  It is used to show graphical 3D sequences that no orignal footage captured.  I wrote a slightly modified version of it for them so they could do frame by frame rendering.

Look out George Lucas and Industrial Light and Magic Company!

Check out their program guide to see a TV app on TV!

Regards,

Ron Monsen

History Channel:
--------------------

Apollo 11
Airs on Saturday, July 24 @ 4pm ET/PT

As mankind's greatest achievement of the 20th century, Apollo 11 stood as the apogee of science, exploration, flight, and technological prowess. In scarcely 10 years, America went from rocketing monkeys to landing a man on the moon. Leaving Earth on July 16, 1969, Neil Armstrong, Edwin Aldrin, and Mike Collins pushed the limits of skill and endurance. See and experience the flight of Apollo 11 through the eyes of the astronauts, mission controllers, engineers, and designers who made it happen.  TV G

@tweakbox - They already have something like that on the History Channel called Decisive Battles.The show airs today. It uses the game Rome: Total War to recreate ancient battles.  Looks pretty cool.
Airs Friday July 23 @ 9PM ET.

@monsenrm - Very cool. Congratulations. I'll have to check it out.

Would anyone be able to record the show and host it for the people who can't get the History channel?

I could record it, but it would end up taking me like 5 days to upload it with my crappy internet upload speed.
