In producing the piece, the NewsHour crew followed a FIRST Robotics Competition team throughout the season, visited Dean Kamen in Manchester, NH, and attended the Championship in Atlanta.

Please check local listings for exact times and PBS stations in your area.

A 30-minute version of the NewsHour program will also air on HDNet. It will premiere at 8 PM ET on Tuesday, May 23 and repeat at 11 PM ET that night. For a list of the cable operators and dish companies that carry HDNet, go to their website: www.hd.net and click on "subscribe."

This was actually one of the best news segments about FIRST that I have seen in a long time.

If anyone wants to see it, I captured it on my computer.
