The only thing 'new' there is that more people are wiling to actually gamble money on it - The idea itself is at least fifty years old, if not older.

Im working on my own proposal to send in that will allow me to make my own spacecraft to go gank the minerprobes.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Anyone know where I could buy a Russian SRBM on the cheap?
