An interesting documentary on the disappearance of the STAR DUST aired on public television here in the US. I thought it might be of interest to some of you.

Thanx DEFPOTEC. I must watch the Colditz escape program also. I had a friend now deceased - who "graduated" from there.

This Programme was also made as part of the BBC Horizon series and was shown in the UK in November generating several threads (search for stardust and stendec - site too busy atm). For further programme details (including transcript) see http://www.bbc.co.uk/science/horizon/vanished.shtml

Watched the program last night. It appears the investigators have pretty well figured out what happened. If they are correct, it'll be only a matter of time until the rest of the wreckage appears from the glacier at the bottom of the valley. BTW, tapes of the program are available for twenty bucks from WGBH in Boston, 1-800-255-9424.
