From John Lancia
I must comment on the plans for space tourism (2 November, p 10). Kerosene fuel instead of hydrogen? Some 9500 flights a year? What kind of pollution is that going to create? It seems pretty messed up to be considering this as a viable way to make money when there are other trivial things to think about, such as global warming killing millions and clouds of static smog hanging over Asia. People who come up with great money-making plans like this need to be slapped down. Now I’m going to go sandbag my basement in preparation for the coming floods.
