Amazon.com Founder Reveals First Photos Of Rocket He Is Building In Texas... | The Huffington Post

Growing up around the LEM's (lunar excursion module) kids on Long Island (it was contracted in pieces all over the island in small machine shops as Grumman once was so no one had "the big picture" for security) and having snuck up a ladder to look into a F-101 Voodoo out at Calverton hamlet former Navy airport, I was impressed by the speed of lift-off. I imagine there's big spheres inside, to balance variations in atmospheric pressure? (Moya on the ocean bottom comes to mind). Maybe he could win the elusive prizes recently set by NASA for this type of vehicle, i.e., transitioning horizontally and vertically, also for further lunar exploration.
