I wonder what they will unveil next week.

The question is, will it survive. As seen with most things before there times, they fail (there was a internet based game company that did something like steam, and got the backing from most of the big companys like EA, Activision and Eldios, but failed because it was ahead of its time). At least they seem to have contacted some visionarys as well (I mean, James Cameron would be up for anything to do with exploring, and Larry Page has expressed extreme interest in space as well).

And what will they unveil next week? The US\'s economy colapsing. ;P
