Neat!
The book, "The Next 100 Years" by ?? Friedman, has some scary predictions regarding the space program. _________________ The bear went over the mountain to see what he could see. |

That was interesting Joe. Never really paid attention to what the space station was to look like and what all was being sent up. Nice visual to see what and how it is being pieced together. Kinda looks like a things they have out with tinkerset or Leggos these days, being put together. I couldn't quite visualize, but the little footnote on the size using the 767 was good.
Thanks for sharing.
As for the book Shawn, I went to take a look at the Author and what it contained. I attended a lecture by a guy with the same last name. Used to be an Engineer for GE Space related things, but not the same guy. Took a look at Table of Contents, chapter titles sounds rather scary. Who knows could be? Star Wars may not be so far fetched.
With interest in allowing people to travel in space, maybe one day future generations will be hiking on the moon? One never knows. _________________ Wanderingsoul (Michelle)
