Is this the Republic of the Congo, or the Democratic Republic of the Congo?
Perhaps it's people who live on the river Congo. There's only one of those.
My french skills aren't that great, but I'm pretty sure that I heard the announcer say "troposphere 5 did not launch in the right direction" which for some reason made me crack up. Perhaps because he said it with such a "of course, that's what we expected" tone.
Amazing shots in the link. Now why again did that White House panel determine that the moon is not worth going to? I think we need some moon alumni to take a stand. #aresix
@BergenCountyJC: Hard to justify the expense on purely hypothetical grounds. It's important to remember that back in the 60's a driving force behind the moon landings was the Cold War and wanting to pwn the Russian space program. There's no overarching national image reason to push for another lunar landing. #aresix
@NorwoodIsMyHero: Understandably the origin of the moon landing was to demonstrate who's is bigger however I think a moon colony is more of a reality then Mars. If this was purely a scientific pursuit, we would focus our technologies and resources to something actually attainable. However once again politics, politics, politics. #aresix
were I to gaze upon this image in a magazine, at a gallery, or in discussion with civilly responsible members of society, I would remark about the quality of the composition, the technical expertise required in order to assemble and configure the equipment to capture this shot, or the dedication of the photographer demonstrated by his willingness to risk his tools in order to record this image.
@PeterSnass: Sometime back in the early days of man, there was invented a device now known as a "timer."
This "timer" could be set to various amounts of time and gradually revert itself to its original zeroed position (using a timed constant of some sort) at which point it would notify the user or even perform a preset task in much later iterations.
One can only assume that Mr. Cooper utilized one of these "timers" in conjunction with a sound-operated trigger with which to start it.

They should have used an Estes kit. It would have flown straighter.

I don't know if I'd trust them to stuff me into a tube filled with liquid oxygen.
