So this dude Steve Eves launched his own one-tenth-scale Saturn rocket. So totally cool.

We’re close to a real-life Astronaut Farmer soon. If and when we get back to the moon, it ain’t gonna be NASA or the Chinese or the Indians, it’s gonna be a private group. Probably financed by Bill Gates, but still.

Thanks to Lowell for getting this video on my radar.

share and enjoy

Actually, more likely it’ll be Steve Bawmer. He’s spent a lot of money on private-enterprise lifting vehicles.
