Eric Mc Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 A bit dumbed down for my taste. It seems to be aimed at 10 year old kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetboy Posted November 29, 2014 Author Share Posted November 29, 2014 I'd hate to think what damage one of those things would have done if they did an "Antares". hi eric, what would it matter to the us spaceagency, these are the guys that exploded 260 odd nuclear bombs in the atmosphere,just for fun sorry science but thats a different story,lol ORION ORION... CANNOT WAIT WISH I WAS TEN,LOL Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Mc Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Normally, when exploding an atom bomb, the test people know where and when the bomb is going to go off. Seeing what has happened fairly recently with some wayward rockets, a nuclear powered device with a mind of its own would be quite interesting. If nuke went off or crashed and contaminated Wallops Island or Cape Canaveral - that would both those facilities lost for generations. So I reckon they would care a bit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
