@louisbosco, this has more relavance to the exhibition than you realise. @ARNC can report back on the fourth.

@louisbosco haha, I hadn’t thought of that but highly appropriate.

From the BM exhibition highlights page:

George Lucas, director of the motion picture Star Wars: A New Hope (1977), drew inspiration for the shape of Darth Vader's helmet from samurai armour – particularly visible in the flared lower section resembling the shikoro (neck-guard). The visor was added to explain how the character could breathe in space. Lucas based the plot of A New Hope loosely on the samurai film Hidden Fortress (1958) by Kurosawa Akira (1910–98).

@Bridger I think we both landed at about the same time.
