How do you determine if the phone owner is the driver? So passengers can't text either?

The problem was that the Redstone, Atlas, and Titan rockets were originally designed as propulsion for nuclear warheads. In order to use them for manned flight they had to be re-engineered with redundant backup and safety systems. Sometimes the new designs didn't perform up to expectations. For the moon launches

There's a backup flame carried in a truck in the convoy that accompanies the torch bearers.

And Don Messick— Hanna-Barbera wouldn't have functioned in the '50s and '60s without Butler/Messick.

Ellenton S.C. was closed and the inhabitants moved to New Ellenton S.C. which is 8 miles north of the old town. They had to move because the Atomic Energy Commission was in the process of building the Savannah River Site for plutonium production. 6000 people and 6000 graves were relocated.

Unfortunately Lego isn't releasing it until Jan. 1, 2014.

Minor correction: The IBM PC was the first "real computer" I had. During high school in the '60s we were given "Cardiac" computer simulators by Southern Bell to teach us how computers operated.

Event Horizon: just above the right side of the big ship at the bottom left.

Once Microsoft implemented the "Windows" key they could have used a variation of it to replace Ctrl-Alt-Delete. So blame your own company, Bill.

There have been previous items with the "Audi Design" moniker— bicycles, watches, and key fob rings for example.

It's also fun to change the text of the crawl to whatever you'd like to see rolled up the screen......

The random letters and numbers at the bottom of the left box are the instructions for drawing the Star Wars logo at the beginning.

If Lego mangles this one like they did the BTTF DeLorean......

The Wagon Queen Family Truckster.....

Actually Apollo 7 was the only flight that "astronaut ice cream" was provided. NASA hasn't sent up any since then—this includes the rest of Apollo, Skylab, Space Shuttle, and the International Space Station.

There are several sites that have instructions on constructing your own lava lamp. The tricky part is adjusting the density of the liquid so that the wax will float correctly. There are also "easy recipes" that use other materials to build something that resembles a lava lamp.

When the 3 Mobile Launchers (as they were called during the Apollo program) were built they contained a complete 1960s-era computer system including processor, disk storage, card readers and punches and communication system. It was tied back to launch control which was 3 miles away. The computers in Apollo launch

Antenna = one

Lego didn't go far enough on the BTTF3 version—they left out the whitewall tires.
