I hate taking the time to sit, captive, through long videos and podcasts, but this one is special. Watching this is like watching the Wright Brothers fly for the first time. One can see that a whole new level of human capability is just beginning that will change everything.

NASA is busy trying to improve the self-esteem of Saracens, but take heart, space exploration enthusiasts. As Bill Whittle explains in a 13:15 PJM video, private enterprise is stepping up to take on the challenge that government is in the process of abandoning.

“This wave of exploration is not dependent on the whims of Congress and whichever president happens to be in office. This wave is being launched by free and successful and visionary businessmen, pilots, designers, and engineers, not by committees of detached bureaucrats and clueless politicians.”
