FIRST Championship: Made for TV?

[David Brinza]

The FRC Championship event is again scheduled to be broadcast on NASA TV this year:

April 13, Friday
9 a.m. - 5:30 p.m. - FIRST Robotics Championship, Georgia Dome, Atlanta (Public Channel)
2 - 6 p.m. - Great Moonbuggy Race Live Interviews - MSFC (Education Channel)
TBD p.m. - Expedition 15/14 U.S. Media Interviews – JSC (Media Channel)

April 14, Saturday
9 a.m. - 6:30 p.m. - FIRST Robotics Championship, Georgia Dome, Atlanta - GSFC (Public Channel)
2 - 6 p.m. - Great Moonbuggy Race Live Interviews - MSFC (Education Channel)

Note that the broadcast time has been extended to 6:30pm EDT on Saturday, so the final matches should be seen in their entirety. Even though I'll be there in person, I like to replay the matches (especially from Einstein field) to watch the game played at it's highest level. It would be great if the NASA TV telecast shows replays of the matches from different camera angles so you could see all of the wild and crazy action that occurs on Einstein.
