omg.

that things is crazy!

 

Its the rocketer. LOL!!! Remeber that movie?

 

that guy has big ***** for even attempting such a project!

 

actually it was quite successful. just not practical. it used a chemical reaction instead of a turbine engine to generate explosive amounts of thrust. a similar system is used on the space shuttle for the orbital maneuvering system for precision maneuvers like docking with the ISS.

 

thats still badass. for that guy

 

yup. i said it wasn't practical...did you just need to have the last word?

 

Doesn't anyone on here watch the discovery channel or SciFi.
There was one on there a couple years ago that was just a lil bigger than
"the rocketeer's" jet pack. I think he got about 10-15 mins of use out of it. Pretty awesome, I think.
Does anyone remember seeing the one NASA had, from the early 80's, it was kinda like a flying chair. The thing mus have weighed 300 lbs.

Here's one for the guy who is shelling out the kind of money that it takes to do that.


ohh yeah, and let's not forget two for me!

Merry X-mas!

 

i am saving my pennies for a more traditional form of rocket propulsion.

 

It has full endorsement from Dr. Kavorkian!
He said, Quote: Two enthusiastic thumbs up! end quote.

What else would you need?
