Here is a another little slice of Hope for the Future:

I've always advocating this approach to Low Earth Orbit Insertion!

Now, somebody finally has built the carrier aircraft launch platform!

When I was a young lad, I watch on our B&W TV the first steps on the moon, and we all had Major Matt Mason Toys and thought we'd work in space when we grew up.

Well, for some of my grandkids generation, it looks like it might just come true!

I nice little slice of Hope for a Brighter future!


Let's all hope Antifa doesn't blow it up!

This Aircraft is now a Real Machine, which is being rolled daily out of the hangar for various tests.

It will soon be making its first flights.





The hangar facility is in California:

"In 2011, Stratolaunch Systems signed a 20-year lease agreement with the Kern County Airport Authority, Mojave, California, for the lease of 81,000 m2 (20 acres) at the Mojave Air and Space Port to build production and launch facilities."

Well... do you think we have nice things in America, if the Far-Lefties are committing riots and arson all over the place?

We used to have a Nice College in Berkeley!

There are Hope filled things happening all over in America, but we'll never get there with the Far-Lefties wrecking the Peace and Civility.

Now the American People KNOW who is doing what, and they will hold the bad-actors accountable.

Nice piece.

They're talking about arming into space? Do you know what this Galaxy will look like with waves of projectiles proceeding out of the solar system and how many will collide with spacecraft bin the future lets hope battles aren't fought at too high speed.

They should go straight away for asteroids with phosphorus and set up in orbit and on the surface to mine tar and collect methane on Titan.

Take water for oxygen and fuse the hydrogen to helium and mix it with resins into a foam for structural material.
