Apollo 18: Big Announcement Tomorrow and Decoder Game Continues Dan Koelsch, February 16, 2011February 17, 2011 We haven’t heard much in the past few weeks from Apollo 18, but now we may know why. Also, the film’s Twitter page has been aflutter with a contest that can give you some cool moon-based (no pun intended) prizes. Get the details after the break.

The winners get some great nerdy prizes like these listed below.•1 Remote Control Moon in My Room – $29.95 •1 When We Left Earth, The NASA Missions DVD Set – $39.99 •1 Moon Machines (DVD) – $24.98The contest ends on February 22nd, and you get the full details and rules here.
