(...) Yeah, to be honest I'm not really sure why I added the I. Various references call it the Discovery, Discovery One or Discovery I. Throughout the novel 2001 it's simply referred to as the Discovery and the second ship is referred to as the (...) (22 years ago, 26-Mar-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

In the wake of Jason's ultracool Discovery MOC, I'm reminded of a LEGO film version of (at least part of) 2001. A quick search proved unsucessful for me, but I'm sure that one of my savvy LUGNET pals can find it easily. Thanks for the help! Dave! (22 years ago, 26-Mar-04, to lugnet.space)
