"When in the desert he came up with the idea to use the two dominating features in the desert -- the sun and the sand -- in his next project.". I wonder where we should send him next.

They look set to replicate project Mercury. At the same costs too. Wonder if they will send any chimps first :).

Not really the first time, but they seem to be much closer to be being able to study them. Apparently, they had 38 atoms trapped for miliseconds. Now it's time to prove it behaves just like matter.

ESA is still at the forefront of space debris developments. But we do have a brilliant idea from the public: "Pay Communist China to shoot it down."

They'll probably launch the concept this month. It doesn't look very realistic, but I like the stage separation.

The plume issue is not that difficult. I think they used something similar on Apollo LES. The problem is stabilizing the entire system, which is extremely difficult. The entire system will most likely plummet down after the solar balloon phase (which is the only phase they tested before). At least they are not using government money :).
