That's cool, I don't know how they come up with 80,000 feet being almost three times the cruising altitude of a jet though.

Dear Canada: I admire your latent attempt at a space progam, but you can't plant a flag in the stratosphere.

With all due respect Bob, but along with the Canadian astronauts that frequented and on occasion commanded the shuttle you might want to check the arm("Canadarm") on the shuttle and the space station and where it was developed and built. Without it, the shuttle's purpose would have been basically useless and they couldn't have built the space station without it. Slightly more than "latent".

They were just the lowest bidders on the arm project. Probably because that funny bacon is so damn cheap up there. :P

None required, Casey----ever, really, but especially when I'm joking.

I know there have been Canadians in space. We had to let them come for a ride, 'cause they wouldn't stop holding their breath until we did. Actually, Canadians look pretty funny when they're bluish.
