Do you have any sources for what you say about Kubrik's film? I'm very curious about it...

  The wikipedia page mentions this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2001:_A_Space_Odyssey_%28film%29#Deleted_scenes http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2001:_A_Space_Odyssey_%28film%2... Deleted scenes Kubrick filmed several scenes that were deleted from the final film. These include a schoolroom on the moon base; Floyd buying a bush baby in a department store for his daughter; additional space walks; and astronaut Bowman retrieving a spare part from an octagonal corridor. The most notable cut was a 10-minute black-and-white opening sequence featuring interviews with scientists discussing extraterrestrial life, which Kubrick removed after an early screening for MGM executives. I'll need to find another page that mentions the Feynman probe, as I like to call it.
