    With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

    Are you going to volunteer for the program? I think you should. Your chance at becoming the object of hero worship is there for the taking.

    Congrats!

      I'm not going to climb into a 64 cm wide tube with 1 ton of LOX and rubber beneath me - besides suffering from a mild claustrophobia, I don't like a 4,5 G kick.

        I'm not too enthusiastic about tight spaces either. As far as the kick, I'm not sure about that either, given previous health issues. No, we better leave this to others.

          The real "scary" part is that it only cost 600 k$ to build this baby.

            Awesome to see some activity on your side of the pond.
            I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

                Danes finally discover upright position possible for homo sapiens

                The one major radical designdriver in the spacecraft system, compared to previous known spacecrafts, is the standing position of the astronaut. We decided to do this, to keep the diameter of the entire rocket down. Human testing varified that such a position is indeed possible.
