It's not exactly rocket science is it?

Anyway, here's some footage of the UK Space Program under development.

Wow! It's carbon neutral! That´s quite visionary!

As for the Congolese guys, they´d better enjoy themselves while they can. What they´re doing is a bit like IT used to be; none of us really understood the point of it all, but it was a good laugh and people paid us for it. Some day the consultants will arrive with their ISO9001 protocols and their Lean Six Sigma and all the fun will be over.

I like the commentator's assessment; 'Troposphere cinq n'est pas partie dans la bonne direction'.

He could almost be a tester, n'est ce pas?

It wasnt that long ago when the Indian space program was like this but look at it now:

Indeed, space programs have to start somewhere.
And its hardly as if the Americans have started

Just one question - Why??

For a laugh, why else?

If I could get the government to pay me to do that kind of thing, I would.

Yes, it exists

Yes that's what I meant

Talk about the blooming obvious

I can't get youtube at work, but I guess its better than our space program?

Yes, it exists

In case anyone missed the historic launch of their first rocket, you can view it here.

It's just like ESA, except in colour.

Just one question - Why??

Why undertake any scientific endeavour?
