But to my pleasant surprise, he was like this dude who doesn’t rest on his laurels and comes correct. I felt lucky that he elected to drop some science on me.

Passengers board a 250 ton steel bird, take a seat on top of 50,000 gallons of fuel and wait patiently to be rocketed 30,000 feet into the air.

Even the projections made a couple of years back seem misinformed, if not just plain silly now. We don’t seem to be moving forward all that fast when actual progress is pitted against these musings into the future.
