Will it travel to Io next? :lol:

At a cost of about $125,000,000 per kg for an Atlas V rocket, sending it to Mars would only bankrupt every forum member, combined :lol:

It can handle it! The puzzle was designed to survive being dropped or crushed during shipping.

I feel sorry for Venus stuck in a runaway Pentultimate effect :lol:

On February 5th, the Pentultimate made a quick stop at the International Space Station as part of the P.A.S.S. project (Puzzle Around the Solar System). Luckily, it was just in time for the first space-to-earth musical collaboration featuring commander Chris Hadfield, Barenaked Ladies and The Wexford Gleeks.

I guess it will go largely unnoticed due to the nature of this thread but those special effects are outstanding.

KelvinS · **Joined:** Mon Mar 30, 2009 5:13 pm

Absoltely incredible special effects. :shock:

It took me a while to realise the choir was computer generated!

Thank you Tony and Kelvin for the nice comments (also thanks again to David and Brandon for the comments on YouTube).

You are my new favourite person :shock:

I really liked the 'Hadfield looking at the puzzle' effect.

What a nice thing to say QuickSolver!

I really enjoyed analyzing Hadfield's movements and synchronizing the Pentultimate's floating trajectory accordingly.
