Trivia

At 10:46 there is a reference to Project Harvey, a real DARPA project to explore Stealth technology in fighter aircraft. "In 1974, the U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) initiated a program known as Project Harvey (named after the 6 feet 3 1/2 inches tall invisible white rabbit from the play of the same name). The ultimate goal was to develop a combat aircraft with as low a radar signature as possible." Ironically, Lockheed Skunkworks, who were not among the 10 initial contractors contracted to explore the possibility of Stealth, were the first to come up with a solution, which ultimately led to the F117 Stealth Fighter. Even more ironically, the technology that led Lockheed to their discovery was an obscure Russian mathematical paper from 1962.

@ 2:28 someone can be seen walking in the background among the trees, which is unlikely to be a deliberate cast movement.
