But good on you Bill, I'll keep my fingers crossed for your brave soul!

9. Suborbital space: the semifinal frontier.

These are the voyages of the Spaceship Blue Job
Its five minute mission
To explore strange new business plans
To seek out funding
And new suckers
To boldly go where many men have gone before
