Hey, Tin, since when are you anti-matter? I know you feel you don't belong into this world, but damn! ;-)

And am I the only one who has flashbacks to Star Trek?

I wrestle with myself on a daily basis.

This is very cool. I hope they do it and show Nasa that space flight is possible without sinking the country deeply into debt.

It's a wonder NASA is even allowing this to happen.
