Priority goes to what counts; nobody cares if you break a leg hoisting yourself on an airplane, but to put an artificial moon in the sky is something else again...
Flat Tube. Britain's government-sponsored National Research Development Corp. has patented a video system that cuts the depth of a TV tube to only 5 in.
