Space Brothers (TV).

Watching eppie 33 made me wish there was a definite plan to do a Mars landing. I'm 47 now, so the likelihood of such an event in my lifetime, even if I live to the Canadian male average (which I think is about 84 years these days), is pretty slim. Some of you youngins might get to see it, though.

Anyway, from the Earth to the moon in a mere 33 episodes - yay!

You can add that the show doesn't do a great job of illustrating zero g when they are inside the moonbase or inside the vehicle.

Anyway, seems like we are finally going to learn who the new JAXA astronauts are, thank God. Although, it looks as if they may spread that out over a number of episodes. I kinda hope this show wraps up after episode 38. I'm more or less done with it but I've put so much time into now that I want to see it through to the end. It'll be a drag for me if this goes to 52 episodes.

Well, of course, on the moon its not zero gee, but when they were all standing around in the vehicle afraid to take their suits off, they seemed to be standing around just like they were on Earth. It would have been better if they put in some details that remind us that they aren't experiencing earth levels of gravity.

baring the comedic aspect the fear of taking off the suites is sooooooo not realistic because of all the training these people do to even be where they were. if all the meters say its safe they wouldn't debate who goes first and it definitely wouldn't fall on the mission captain to lead the way.

Yeah. That was pretty dumb.

Also Hibito would DEFINITELY have gone over to check out the flashing thing if he even had the slightest impression that it might have been something unusual. That's why they're on the moon in the first place.

I totally buy them being nervous about opening up their suits, but I agree it was overplayed. As for not checking out the flash immediately, top priority, just having landed, has got to be making sure everything is working correctly at the base.
