@Hellkeeper: ASCII pr0n FTW! Giggity!
@skipjack002: Status quo would have Congress claim SpaceX is too expensive and then budget out billions more to study a new solution. It will come up with several new designs and then sponsor a multibillion dollar competition. The winner will be the contractor that can lie the most about its projected costs. The…
@midnightdsob: It passed the termination shock and has reached the heliosheath. 33 years and still going, maybe 4 years to interstellar space!
It always comes down to addition no matter how you arrange the powers.
@SGTalon: I agree. NASA + Private = WIN. Obama is the first president to hand over the dull launch taxi duty to private enterprise. If Boeing goes ahead with a similar service we will be even better off. Now if the whiners will stop crapping their pants we can all move on. NASA didn't fly an astronaut for 6 years…

I've seen LED light strings with wattage values as low as 6.4 W for 100 lights.
@Dj Orphic is nominal: That was AWESOME!
@Spunkie: I see your process, and raise it to (google) BETA :)
The unstable Cr-43 model would fail in a forked decay chain using a positron-delayed proton process via Ti-42 = Sc-42 = Ca-42, and electron capture process via Va-43 = Ti-43 = Sc-43 = Ca-43.
@Tubbygaijin: No r not!
So I wonder if Branson will partner with SpaceX. If Dragon can put people in actual orbit, how does that bode for Virgin Galactic?
@filecabinet20036: Agreed. Let NASA do the research but the transportation should be privatized.
@Swift2001: Yes, then Griffons.
@hawkeye18: Awesome.
