Ken,

Is that the former Republic of Texas in the former offshoot of England? In that case, I'm sure we'll let you watch it on us!

I enjoyed it. I read years ago that the CIA in Turkey was monitoring Soyuz One's descent with a failed parachute and heard Vladimir Komarov calmly say goodbye to his wife and then read off his instruments and offer some final in-flight impressions. The Soyuz 11 disaster was even more avoidable.
