As one of the good online reviews of _Moonlight Mile_ says: "This is
one of the few Space Exploration based animes out there, A lot of
people will come into this show expecting Planetes. If you are, you
will be sorely dissapointed."

_Planetes_ is the examplar of space exploration shows. It does a great
job at capturing all the variety and the pluses and minuses of being bitten
by the space exploration "bug". Great characterization and great attention
to details (strong interaction with NASA during its making).

They are different sorts of shows. _Moonlight Mile_ does not really try
to have a realistic plot; it's more entertainment oriented. The main
characters couldn't really become astronauts; there are way too many strikes
against them and too much luck involved.

Of course, if you are really interested in realism in becoming astronauts,
then _Space Brothers_ is the anime for you. A very detailed look at all
the training involved. The story is much slower but I would recommend it
as a gift if you have any nieces or nephews that dream of becoming an
astronaut.

My personal ranking (out of 10) gives a 7 to _Moonlight Mile_, an 8 to
_Space Brothers_, and a 10 to _Planetes_.

Thanks for bringing _Moonlight Mile_ up. It doesn't get mentioned as
much as it deserves (at least to those people interested in space
exploration!)
