Spaceship for two
William Henning - Wednesday, March 26th, 2008 | 5:13PM (PT)


Okay, sub-orbital only, but VERY cool!

Spaceship for two Image 1

The Lynx looks like a small jet, or a really tiny shuttle - and it gen do a sub orbital flight several times in a day!

Running on a simple mixture of jet fuel (kerosene) and liquid oxygen, the small craft can take off from airports, and land right back at them - after reaching a maximum altitude of 61km (about 40mi).

Given the small size of the craft, I have to wonder if it could make orbit if one added a second stage...

Well, It'd be much better this spaceship could go to Mars because sex in space is pretty hard but I hope sex on Mars will be pretty reasonable to manoeuvre in the future!!!!

It is pretty cool....The 40 mile high (61KM high) club >_>

Will probably cost a pretty penny to get, but it is pretty neat >_>

Sex in zero G is impractical for a number of reasons, though it would be kind of cool to try at least >_>
