[Brian Sikkema]

I think you might be getting me confused with Sean here. I'm looking for
info on Mercury, not Apollo. I *would* like to know how the heck they landed

is an Oscar Winning Tom Hanks flick, with an Oscar Winning Tom Hanks budget,
I bet their method involves a lot more cash than I have handy....
