Yep. I re-watched it, coincidentally, just last month.

Side note - I went up to Mauna Kea Observatory, and it was cool to be above the clouds. On a real clear night in Hawaii you can see the Milky Way and so many stars you didn’t know are there. Cool stuff.

First of all what a loss to science and asteroid safety observation. Has there been any talk of building a replacement given that dismantling had already been decided. The stars are more wonderful when there is little or no ambient light. I go out to West Virginia at times and love to look at the Milky Way and search for the constellations. Once when I was in Chicoteague, VA, there was a massive power failure for 40 miles up and down the coast. The stars were unbelievably brilliant and about 4 times as large as they normally appeared, and of course a lot more of them.
