If Sigurd is agreeable you could be our in-situ reporter (as opposed to roving) if you're that close? _________________ A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. |

Re: Starchaser to Launch Eco-Engine Rocket Aug 2010 Posted on: Wed Mar 24, 2010 8:14 pm I'd like to go, but I'm not trusting the UK transportation system enough to venture out on a journey like that yet. Wish it'd been closer to London!

Re: Starchaser to Launch Eco-Engine Rocket Aug 2010 Posted on: Fri Apr 02, 2010 1:14 am i'm a little skeptical of a 30k ft launch after not hearing about them doing anything for a while except "educational outreach". they've got some nice ideas but i call shenanigans. it'll probably be more legit than what ARCA pulled right before the x-prize was won, but i smell a "let's launch something so people pay attention to us again" sort of situation... call me cynical...
