0 Stephen Hawking plans to send tiny spaceships on a fast mission to Alpha Centauri. This should only take 20 years. Click that shit and read more. I think it's pretty cool.

0 I saw several articles on this.
They did the press release on the anniversary of Yuri Gegarin's flight. ![[Image: alcatraz-prison-picture2-1.jpg]](http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b78/lktraz/Sigs%20and%20Avs/alcatraz-prison-picture2-1.jpg) ![[Image: dont_care_offended.gif]](http://s17.photobucket.com/user/lktraz/media/Sigs%20and%20Avs/2012%20Bumper%20stickers/dont_care_offended.gif.html)  Favorite Quote: I've been up to my tits in drugs all day

0 He should do a little thinking on how to get the fuck outta that tea cart he's in.
Your signatures annoy me.

0 Unfortunately that's 20 years after the technology is developed and the infrastructure is in place. Still awesome

0 I hope I live to see a day where the NASA gets the same budget as the military.

Still awesome So do you mean that they don't have any idea how they might be able to do this, they just said they are gonna and everyone got a big old hard on about it? So if I said I was gonna build a pair of wings out of twigs and bird feathers and fly to the moon everyone would be all excited?

0 They know how to do it. The Problem is we haven't developed technology able to survive being accelerated to 20% of light speed, nor built the laser array necessary to propel it.
Keep in mind atm a cheap launch rate is about $5,000 a pound, it can easily hit 10k. Hopefully Space X will reach it's goal on sub 1k prices to make this more feasible. |
