I found this late, the video was choppy, I couldn’t understand anyone except you and maybe a couple of others on the panel itself, and after the Wil Wheaton comment, it completely shut down Better than nothing, however.
The parts I did hear were totally awesome, though. Yay, explosive decompression! XD

Every year I threaten to go to this thing (I live 90 minutes away), but never do. I’m so lazy.

Aliens are real and have made contact with us several times according to Apollo 14 astronaut Dr Edgar Mitchell….

I just wanted to let you know that this was one of the best panels I’ve ever attended. I hope you have it again next year.

Nah, the deniers can’t use him because as far they’re concerned he was just acting the role of astronaut and he can’t deny the moon landings because then he’d lose credibility as UFO/alien spotter. Lose lose all the way round. Pity about him though.

Yep.

Great panel, Phil!

Comic-con is fun…

Although you do have some ground to make up. You probably didn’t crash the Discover Magazine’s servers even once…

Maybe Mr. Mitchell received a higher than normal dose of Cosmic rays
