@Peter1469 SpaceX is mondo cool, did you hear about their internet satellite broadband program? They call it Starlink, I just signed up for the news letter, hopefully I can get in on their experimental program, I believe it's free for the initial testing...

Gee. I wonder what they will charge us for a bottle of water at the spaceport?
