    >>Either Nassa or the us airforce are always coming up with new crazy plans like this. In the 70's they had some project Orion where they planned to propell huge manned space crafts using blasts from nuclear warheads.<<

    That's nothing! I once heard of this hting called "Apollo" where they tried to get a man on the moon. Now isn't that silly?

    poor little froggy.
    he's floating due to high magnetic fields which takes energy to produce.
    what we really need is a room temperature superconductor, then gravity will be defeated and we can hover about like in Star Wars.
    Or do i watch too much sci-fi ?????
