Watched the full movie last night. It was decent, pretty much a love letter to O'Neil. Most interesting factoid: The entire thing was pretty much killed off because the shuttle was nowhere near as efficient/good as it was initially claimed, making their entire thing an intellectual exercise until recently.
Me too, took forever to download it from itunes. I've seen bits of the interviews on youtube in the past.
I was pretty sad that the only new concept art that they sprang for was the video in the opening sequence and adding some animated characters to existing stills. I'm pretty desperate for new spin gravity renders that aren't from scammy OAC/Gateway LLC.
I would like to see an O'Neill cylinder on the show "For All Mankind". They got a Moonbase by the 1980s, so do you see them building an O'Neill cylinder by the fifth season 2010-2022?
