NASA Research, Stirling Engine video

Got on the internet the other night determined to track down some more NASA Stirling engine videos. So after a bit of digging, while watching some 'Survivor' episodes (i know pretty sad hey), I found a few bits and pieces but found one that had more meat than most, 15 minutes worth (although its fairly dated) but (its NOT the car video).
There isn't any 'profound' information in it, but I enjoyed watching it and thought others on the forum might also, good footage is hard to find..

Its 30 mins long but the 'Stirling related section' starts at about 15:40

I think most of us have watched the NASA car video, but I’ll put that in also for those who may not have seen it..

A few more NASA (and other) Stirling videos
Some of them make reference to Thermoelectric Generators at times, but all have at least some part relating to Stirling engines.

These aren't NASA videos but are of a similar flavour..
They give an overview of Free Piston Stirling engines..
