Title: NASA's Lights
Post by: wattMaster on May 04, 2016, 04:48:55 PM: I got to see the lighting NASA uses in its base, But it was the usual Cobraheads and nothing special.
However, The lighting in one of their buildings (Don't ask, There are too many names to remember.) looked a bit odd, Like some high CRI Metal Halide bulbs, So we asked one of the people there, And it turns out that those are the lights from when they were
Filming the Transformers movie, And has not been changed since. And the person said that they wanted to think that it was Halogen.

This is what they look like. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Air_%26_Space_sulfur_lamps.JPG)

i'm really curious to see what those look like in person. Too bad I will probably never get to see them (assuming they get replaced with LEDs soon).
