Note the part about LM purchasing the "software-defined satellite" technology assets from Vector. That's where the value is!

We pretty much are!
Both nanosatellite and small launcher companies are booming hard in the last few years.

Really interesting piece and impreccably written!
A noteworthy statement from Orville: "He feels deeply upon the subject of accidents, saying that there are vastly too many of them and that this country has a bad record. He regards this as a matter of better pilot training; not, he thinks, until the spirit of daredeviltry dies out and pilots shun a hazard with the horror of a veteran locomotive engineer will we witness material improvement"
I also noted there were a few words that I have not seen before in modern English texts: "bumboatmen", "spoke-shave" "self-bailer", for example.

This is the only diamond-bearing site accessible to the general public, so this is at least a moderately interesting subject.

Crowdfunded spacecraft are definitely a cool addition to our space exploration program.

Do you have a public email address? I used a form on your personal website to send you a message.
Let me know if that worked. Dennis

Thanks! We got a warm reception for our concept from online communities , but it is an uphill battle to have your voice heard on the Internet.

Little new technology, but a substantial financial cost. One would need a much heavier Martian probe that would include return stage for the lander.

Interesting. We would love to use Rust instead of legacy aerospace programming languages for our project.
