Hi;
On the site
http://www.syfy.com scroll down to the online series Mercury
Men, episode two entitled Skyscraper Saboteurs at 6:20 minutes into the
video, the engineer unleashes a Moleskine notebook with a rather large
Pickett slide rule and does some gravity equations to discover aliens are
pulling the moon into the earth with a gravity well.
Actually, this Science Fiction is kind of fun, takes you back into the
slide rule era. Ten episodes online which I enjoyed, kind of reminds you of
Heinlein or Asimov work. To anyone who likes this stuff, enjoy!
