Hi Guys, might be kinda off topic this one, if so admins please feel free to move.

Here goes

My beloved was watching a film the other day (Heartbreakers) and there was a guy in it who was an astrophotographer !, showed him using his scope and some views through it (HAH as if, but good for a laugh ), but got me thinking as to if what other films out there feature telescopes or astronomy/astronomers in them.

Armageddon - Guy who spots the asteroid heading towards Earth (don't know what scope he's using).

The Dish - Think if I remember right a couple of guys are watching an Apollo rocket heading towards the moon with a big SCT.

over to you lot, have fun !

There's a couple to get us going.

Tried running it on my home P4 laptop and my works network through all sorts of configurations and as you say it allways seemed reluctant to "give the system back" shame there's not a hidden dos command line version as there used to be as that was wonderful.

I used to do the SETI one, but when they swapped over to the boinc server I had no end of problems so gave up on it, and they lost all my completed work units I had over 1000 !
