Mighoul Saboodo(Maxmaps) is invited to The White House ?!?

[78stonewobble]

There is. At the White House event I would think whatever scientist/museum person who is running the thing could get time on any observatory they wanted to for comparisons. "Have your observatory be featured in front of the President!" They could also just go to Night Skies Network and view any of the live streams from observatories there and compare it to a live stream from the one at the NASM on the mall.

Then again cameras vs eyes is a big difference. You'd have to host the event under an actual dark sky instead of the White House lawn for the impact to be truly noticable. President could crash Big Meadows at the Shenandoah for that.

True, there's a big difference between telescopes, cameras and the naked eye. Tho maybe there's a lifestream of cameras without telescope to give a more reasonable comparison.

Heh, I'm sure if Obama crashed that place, there'd be plenty of light too... and he wouldn't get popular?

Does the President know about his KSP-Skills?

Just kidding, congrats all involved

[Pthigrivi]

Huge congrats guys : )

[Wiseman]

That's so awesome! It's really good to see KSP getting recognition for the amazing work the team has done in creating a game that's both educational and incredibly entertaining.

Steal some napkins while you're there, else nobody will believe you.

Congrats Squad!

[pandaman]

Congrats again... I just wondered, which guys from the team are going? And how did you decide? First to reach the Mun? Closest to KSC from orbit with just a parachute?

Looking forward to the photos.

And does this mean we'll see a Whitehouse anomaly on Eeloo?

From streaming games to dinner at the White House, the Maxmaps story.

Tomorrow Night, on Biography.

[Whirligig Girl]

Maxmaps has just said on the Squadcast that he will not personally go to the white house because there's only two slots and he didn't want to steal from others. (I think he said Felipe and Dan)

Air force one has the problem that people steal cutlery from it, yes that is congress men and foreign head of state. Had it been reporters I would kind of understand it.

And yes this is awesome, how many video game people has had this honor, and not as leader of major companies either.
