Wahhh... I’m not given this for free, so is it really something the planet needs? Were Al Gore going up, of course, nothing would be said. Think of the pounds he’d have to shed though, to offset the carbon footprint of his launch.

Gotta love the so called “progressives” who are all for anything that opposes actual progress.

The author of this op-ed whinefest is a simpering rectal sluice who should be strapped to the spaceframe of the next outbound launch vehicle. Snarky treehugger.

Wow...this article is probably the dumbest thing I’ve seen all week.

And I’ve seen some dumb stuff on the interweb this week, let me tell YOU.

To answer the question, yes, the planet really needs this. There.

do we really need to unload more fuel emissions into the skies with tourist rockets

Aside from whether this is a viable business idea, the amount of exhaust would be insignificant, as would the author of this question.

I don’t understand why the author of this piece is upset. If wealthy people want to spend their own money to head out into sapce, why should anyone care?

[SunkenCiv]

“fat cats”?

IOW, the article was written by an unreconstructed hippie loser. :’)
