Could such a super company have the same time warp Semroc shipping that allows your order to arrive at your doorstep 15 minuted before you actually place it? I doubt it!

I was looking at the article on the web about China's latest satellite launch. http://www.space.com/missionlaunche...ass-launch.html They're putting up their own GPS system. I can't draw a direct connection to how that would expand our space program - I can only anticipate some sort of competitive response - but it did occur to me this might prod the US to more activity which could in turn propel the hobby market. Of course, moms might not be very amused when Junior starts asking for the newest Estes Search-and-Destroy Satellite Killer model But I'm sure vendors will want to supply whatever demand which might arise Doug .

I agree with Carl. I have tried to form several teams over the years. Too many type A personalities in rocketry. That's why I suggested a mere distribution co-op. That already works in a variety of industries.
I wouldn't mind seeing Estes release one Semroc kit a year. Some might see real commercial success and Carl is likely to be far less needy than NCR was. Jerry |

I doubt it will fuel any increase in the space program budget at all. It wouldn't fit in well with the new administration's "Spread the Wealth" program.
