> Dear Listees:
>
> As a few of you already know Steve Arnold #1 and I have been working  on a 
> major new TV project for over a year. It is a one-hour special  for the 
> Science Channel: "Meteorite Men."
>
> This is a significant step up from the previous TV work we've done. It  is 
> a big budget production with plenty of action, adventure and, of  course, 
> a little goofing around. I was recently in Burbank, CA to see  the final 
> cut of the show and we are thrilled with the results. Steve  and I 
> returned to the Brenham site for location filming, and also  filmed at a 
> second location which will remain confidential for the  moment. In 
> addition we shot a good segment at The Center for Meteorite  Studies at 
> ASU, Tempe with the kind assistance of Dr. Meenakshi Wadhwa  and Dr. 
> Laurence Garvie, both of whom appear in the special, as well  as the 
> famous IBeAM. There is also plenty of cool, hi-tech animation  of the 
> Asteroid Belt, a re-creation of a meteorite shower, etc.
>
> Science put out the official press release yesterday morning and you  can 
> read it here:

> The world premiere of "Meteorite Men" is Sunday, May 10 at 9 pm  Eastern, 
> only on the Science Channel.

> It's been a long project, but a very rewarding one. Our production 
> company has been fantastic to work with. They really went above and 
> beyond the make the best adventure documentary possible, and we hope  List 
> members in the US and Canada will enjoy the show. We do not have 
> international air dates yet, but hopefully "Meteorite Men" will be  seen 
> in other countries before too long. I will post further news when  we have 
> it.
