Yup, lots of stuff going on up there. No coverage cuz it isn't sexy like trying to destroy the president, The Oscars, and the latest admission of idiocy from a liberal.

Not necessarily. At work they have been developing cube sats with Boing and Northrop Grumman. They are small and relitivly cheap. We launched a Satern 5 rocket from Vandenberg that launched 40 satellite's.

I was referring to the above developed boxes made for reaming and boring. Now they are small and cheap, later big and expensive.

Never heard of it. We are buying another TV for the man cave. 43" and it's a ruku TV. Only $270.

How is the latest project working out?
