Glad i'm not the only one... I really think that pretty colossal amount of money could have been much, much better spent on something much more worthy.

Wonder what spacecraft they're going to use to get him there? They Soyuz can get him into LEO, but a Soyuz/R7 with that kind of range hasn't been even conceptualized since the 1960s. Even with a stop at the ISS things seem a bit cut close.

They might just use the same design that got us there before. I saw on the discovery channel that they're rounding up all the scraps to rebuild it so they can copy the design and improve a few things to make a new one rather then re design it all from scratch

He may be JC, but he's not a god. Yes, indeed he has done a hell of a lot, things that I - and i'm sure countless others - are hugely grateful for... But imagine what else could be done with that amount of money. Literally thousands of people could be helped from one of their many, many different predicaments. He could have given it to any number of ecological or humanitarian charities, and still had millions and millions in 'pocket change'.
