Grant Imahara does M.O.R.A.V.

Ok, before you ask, M.O.R.A.V. is an action/sci-fi story that features massive armored robots embroiled in a corporate war. M.O.R.A.V. stands for Multi-Operational Robot Armored Vehicle. A MORAV is a 30 feet tall, humanoid style 2-legged piloted robot. MORAV is a fully-fleshed out concept created by artist and model designer Fon Davis, who has worked on many high profile projects such as The Matrix. The website is well fleshed out with history, bios, news and vids. One that proved very interesting was a short of Mythbusters Grant Imahara doing remote model work for Fon. I though you might be interested in seeing Imahara's multifaceted talents as well as some of the models in work. There is plently more on the main page of MORAV, I know I am looking forward to seeing where this all will go.

Myth Busters to do the Moon Landing Hoax

I was just reading on the Bad Astronomy Blog that the guys over at the Discovery Channel program MythBusters, are going to do a program on debunking the myth that the Apollo Moon landings were staged. The Blog reports that the episode will air April 25th but other than that, any details on the episode is under wraps. However here is a short video of the build team visit to the Marshal Space Flight Center.
