As I recall, the first lunar landing was made by Armstrong and Aldrin July
20, 1969, so the Dalotek Affair was being shot as human history in space was
bring made. Rather nice little bit of serendipity there, eh wot? Also, 1969
was the last year of production for Star Trek (TOS) - its final eps was
broadcast about 6 weeks or so before the lunar landing. Gene Roddenberry was
often heard to say that the lunar landing contributed to Trek's popularity
in syndication because Armstrong and Aldrin whetted the public's appetite
for all things to do with outer space!
