we're building a rocket. we're building it bigger...
« on: October 07, 2010, 09:38:45 PM »
That is the start to a thread over HERE.

These guys are building a manned rocket.

They are lunching it from a floating launch pad. One they are towing to sea with their homemade submarine.



Website for the project HERE

Can only think of these...  :loco: :smart: :loco:

We're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad.

Looks like it. It was OK last night (early am) when I was on and I was planning on going back as there are a lot of pictures there. Should probably be a madmodder site.  :lol: :lol:

Just now tried it and guess they have it fixed already. They probably have experience with this sort of thing.  :lol:

I spent quite a bit of time reading the whole thing in the wee hours of Sunday morning.  Quite the dedication.  And a little bit of outright cookoo!
