SciFi Tech Talk
SciFi Tech Talk is the podcast where we look at a movie / TV show / book / short story and the tech involved and what it says about THE FUTURE. We may go through some older material and see how much has become reality and how far we have yet to go. And new material could be looked at from the standpoint of how long we think it will take to become reality and how far from the present does it stretch the imagination.

SciFi Tech Talk #000181 - The Man Who Fell To Earth
•
Julie Kuehl, Jeff Syer, Mike McPeek
Julie, Jeff, and Mike discuss the 1976 movie The Man Who Fell To Earth: “Thomas Jerome Newton is a humanoid alien who comes to Earth to get water for his dying planet. He starts a high technology company to get the billions of dollars he needs to build a return spacecraft, and meets Mary-Lou, a girl who falls in love with him. He does not count on the greed and ruthlessness of business here on Earth, however.” - imdb.com
