wrote: Just another term for "Space Tourism," I'm afraid, unless NASA or the Russian and Chinese Space Agencies start hiring off the street. Certainly a reasonable viewpoint. Like I said, I'm on the fence about these other uses - some folks think they're viable, some think they're nonsense, and who knows what someone will think up in the future... Remember, no one was ever going to want to go more than 25 mph :-). After all, the hot air balloon has been around over 300 years, and look how far they've advanced.... ahh, well, maybe there's a better example.... The big money, as ever, is in boosting stuff to orbit. Hopefully Rutan will be able to work something out. And you'll be right there to see it, you lucky devil! :-) Ron Wanttaja
