I wanna be an astronaut!

They should take volunteers from the olds. Whata they gots ta lose?

"Old Man's War" style. Hell an old man with a sour disposition would gladly take out a rocket full of youngs.

No. That's just some progressive kid being stupid.

Why not just make it part of NASA?

I would expect NASA to spin down. Currently there are bajillionairs who what to shoot stupid people to Mars so let them.

Most of the NASA launches are in support of the military/SPY programs. Very little NASA stuff going on. NASA has to hitch rides to the Space Station from Russians. RUSSIANS!

The same NASA that has lied for years about global warming?

Try reading past the headline.

I did. Idiot kid got reassigned.

I can always count on you to throw a political spin on posts in the OT.

I don�t know what they�ve said about that scam, but I�m just thinking why add another space program, when we already have a space program?
