Now to be totally fair, this Easter egg won't be remotely obvious unless you know how to read braille, but even so, how many of us even noticed that Dr. Norm Spellman (Joel David Moore) had a braille message written on his hat?
It's most noticeable during the early scene where Jake, Grace, and Norm are exploring the abandoned school on Pandora, and if you translate the braille into text, it reads "1969."
Why is this significant? It is, of course, the year of the Apollo 11 moon landing, a scientific milestone which Norm would unsurprisingly want to champion and celebrate, being a scientist and all.
