Commercial Lunar Mission

Saw this on Astronomy.com. A company called TransOrbital is going to launch a spacecraft to the Moon called TrailBlazer. They are also planning more missions for the future. The company seems to have interest both in making money and doing scientific research.
This could start to pave the way for Commercial companies sending people to the moon.

Yeah, I noticed that one too. Well, I guess it will have to happen, sooner or later. I saw one article on the BBC News website which claimed it would be like the "Wild West".

Let's book tickets before they're sold out! Anyone for Mars? Nah, let's hit Saturn!

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
