Maybe what we should do is rent Mir and the Russian space facilties and use them to help build SS Fred (Interesting name).. I doubt the US people would be exciting if we bought Mir and Energina and such.. (Jobs and such, even if it would probably save us money).. The Russians alreay have Mir up in space, why not used it to build a American/US space station, or build a wing onto Mirt that is for US use.. I know Mir is far from ideal, but what is.. Why reinvent the wheel when the wheel is already in Orbit?? Does anyone know of any Russian Jobs?? Namely space jobs, or Russians who are looking for jobs int he Use Space industry?.. I do like the idea of a reward for the first commerical space station in orbit versus NASA/DOD building one.. One thing NASA can do it rent space on the new station.. Why must the FED own everything, can't it be happy to rent things.. Michael Adams Alias: Morgoth/Ghost Wheel nsmca@acad2.alaska.edu
