Looks like there might be some people with a little too much time on thier hands. From this story:
Viewpoint Creative and the SciFi Channel have teamed up to create the promotional campaign for the net’s newest reality series, “Master Blasters.†“Blasters†pits amateur rocket scientists against each other in a race to build and launch bizarre objects into orbit – anything from a Mini-Cooper to a living room sofa.
Wow! A reality show where they shoot stuff into space? That’s almost better than Mythbusters where they spend an hour blowing s**t up! I guess I need to watch more Sci-Fi channel.
Anyone see this yet?
Heh… “Amateur Rocket Scientists”. Gotta use that one.
There were several of us from MetroplexMini there. There was a malfunction and we left after waiting for for about 5 hours for it to happen.
Turned out that the launch took place about 40 minutes after we left, darn the luck.
I have pictures of the prep though!
Was this a MANNED MISSION???
I know I wouldn’t have volunteered to ride in anything where a bowling is part of the safety system :)
