Has Someone Been Sniffing The Nitrogen?

February 17th, 2008

This guy is really, really, really, smart.

Mr. Widget wants to go to space.

Ken Schellenberg, who has adopted the alter-ego on his company website, wants to put a simple but highly engineered bottle rocket into orbit.

This could be impossible, but the CEO of AntiGravity Research already holds the altitude record for boosting an elongated plastic pop bottle – propelled by a bicycle pump, water and a bit of soap – into the air.

He has sent a bottle rocket as high as 379 meters, and because of that he thinks it’s possible to launch one into orbit.

One question. Why?

Before you comment, I know why. “Because he can”. Right?
