vkoenig,
yeah heads will roll and I imagine some bod heads will go, just hope its not someone of prominence.
On another note, what did you think of the Sans 2 rendition on the delay pr, shaped like an old iron bomb, drawn to mislead ? Sure there's horizontal and vertical stabilizers, but I thought the lifting body shape was two fold, use air currents to help with the lift, the station keeping area being one cubic mile not a square mile. Move up on the y axis, instead of the quicker way being the x axis and your out of the box. I would think the ship would gain altitude any way during the day time hours, the warming of the helium, then losing altitude at night as things cool down. Also for more area for the solar cells on the top.
At the share holders meeting Huff said there was enough money to finish the project, but who knows now what will happen.
