The transmissions from earth are delayed-

Thanks for the precision. But what I really tried to say (and failed, trying to type fast) was that the delay was not right as, if memory doesnīt betray me, it was of just a few seconds in the film, when correct average timing, for the spaceship just close to Marsīs orbit, would be some 15 min. (3 to 22 min., depending of relative position between Earth and Mars); to put that delay into the film would not be practical, so it was somewhat compressed, and that was the "minor" detail.Regards
