: I would love to live in some alternate reality where the US still cared about
: space colonization.

Turns out, that dream is coming closer. Recently, a British company called Reaction Engines is developing a new SABRE engine which will operate like a jet in atmosphere and a rocket in outer space. They are also designing the new 'Skylon' space plane, which theoretically could be used to bring supplies up to the International Space Station. The great thing is, it can be used again and again. No need for giant rockets anymore!

Just one more step on the road to turning Deimos into a grand Colony Ship en route to the Tau Ceti system. ;)

Vale,
Perseus
