The diary of a space shuttle chaser...

[Jeff7]

we still have the problem of no vision, no goals, and no program.

I'd love to see a goal of something like Project Longshot. 🙂


(Or hell, even bring back Prometheus. Even just the proposed communications systems are impressive. 10Mbit/s downlink - from Jupiter.)

Is it really called shuttle chasing? I mean, it's not like storm chasing which can pretty much happen anywhere at any time and then move around at will. Here you pretty much have to be at one place at the scheduled time and wait... if it's delayed you come back at the next scheduled time.

I was quite in favor of the jupiter direct project, which i believe could have continued and furthered the shuttle line into an outer solar system vehicle.

Pretty damn cool OP. Pretty damn cool.
