No but the capsule cabin shots were grainy like old tube TV cameras! The computers were all sheathed in sheet metal painted a dry beige green like NASA before they went to flat screens.

I think the CHinese make all the hight end screens now - maybe they're playing off an old-school space nostalgia theme.

At least we have some space exploration going on somewhere on the globe:-)
