Re: Upgrading the Renegade
The booster coming in ballastic was the initial reason that I heard of for the change from a two stager to a single stager. I guess some of the clubs wouldn't even let you launch it at their fields the problem had become so prevalent. Of course some of that (or even most of it) could have been G.G. ...

Re: Gap staging vent hole size
To be honest, it has been sitting there ready to fly (except for some cosmetic touches which I'll take care of after a successful flight). I've been following Ted's escapades to gain some feeling for how to continue. It looks to me that with the field I generally fly from that I will go with a C11-0...

Attention All Hands- New User Filter Set
Due to the continuing assault by Spammers, We here on the Starport have decided to start using a filtering program for new members on the forum. I was having to delete one or two a day lately. While this may not seem excessive, it does cut into my time in other endeavors. I have tried in the past to...

Re: Enough of the robots, let's put people back in space!
Sorry, the name is Amy Shira Teitel who has a YouTube channel called vintage space. The vlog cast I was referring to above was actually on a different channel of hers.

The World Is Awash In BS
A couple of years ago, the magic team of Penn & Teller did a TV series on cable called Bull *oops you said word #1. Well if you listen to the author of this article, Penn & Teller could have continued the series for years... This is really the best paragraph I have read so far in 2017: "...

Re: Enough of the robots, let's put people back in space!
Given Donald Trump's track record with governmental projects, if anyone has the knowledge and ability to get NASA back on tract it would be him. And not only is he aware of how to deal with expensive contractors and getting things moving (ala the NYC ice rink), but he is more likely to advocate for ...

I wasn't sure, as the site I use for identifying spammers didn't really have anything on the info the user provided. I generally err on the side of kindness, but then I should have looked at the post and noticed the links. While somewhat relevant if they were articles about election equipment, a lin...

Re: Enough of the robots, let's put people back in space!
I was certain that I had heard somewhere that President Trump was very much interested in NASA, as most people of his age are. Anyone who grew up in the fifties and sixties at the very least has some fond memory of NASA. Of course the easiest way to get NASA back into flying and to give the private ...
