Maybe this is like NASA TV. See, every once in awhile, on the community access stations (on cable) there is NASA programming. Sometimes it is folks talking about different programs, satellites, missions, the moon, whatever. If you are really lucky, they show fly over footage from different space shuttle missions. Now, I think this is terribly interesting but I haven’t found anyone else willing to watch this with me. Perhaps there lecture series falls into the same programming mode?

Could be interesting, sure, but who is their target audience? Is the U trying to reach students or other institutions or individual academics?
