And even if it did they would have been able to have a pretty good stab at what earth from space looked like. Perhaps in the 24th(?) Century they "had" some sort of earth scanner that could see through the clouds? Maybe - but why would they bother?  Also, if they were low enough in the atmosphere to be chased by a 1960's jet interceptor, how could they have seen a view of the whole planet? -- Paul Hyett, Cheltenham |
