Japs already did it with Space Battleship Yamato. 

That's what my gif was referencing (I think they must've updated Star Blazers). At any rate, it was either that gif or the original sequence which I'll post now for the edification of the young ones and feed our own nostalgia.

I’m glad I’m not the only one that read that Ayes of Texas book.  That was an amazing book to my Jr. High-self.   Read all three of those books - I think the last one had some space stuff in it, and hey! We have what’s basically Apollo 18 sitting over at the JSC.

Now that is a Texas town I haven't yet been to but plan on being there sometime near the end of July. Visiting small struggling towns across the state is a mainstay of my employment.


Monorail salesman, eh?

It's been probably 10 years, but the last time I was there there was a decent crowd.  I guess a lot can change in that time.  /get off my lawn

Saw a decent crowd there on my last visit as well over winter break.

I’ll take it off heir hands.  I’ve been thinking about getting an old beat up Airstream to fix up and stick in the backyard as a guesthouse. Battleship sounds cooler than an airstream.

If I was some internet billionaire I would buy it, restore it to its full glory with some massive luxury upgrades and cruise that bitch around the globe as my personal yacht.

Don’t need no stinkin’ 14” guns if a couple of little ship to ship missiles will do a more effective job, plus an anti aircraft missile capability. Bet those rooskie billionaires are equipped with that hardware, just like the Saudi yachts reportedly are. Some of them even have their own submarines on board, not to mention helicopters.
