Yes, but the chances of me convincing my parents to give me 1200 bucks either a) before I turn 19 or b) give me 1200 bucks AND a fake ID are slim to none anyway. And I have no money of my own

I have only been to the summer ones, but the off season sounds neat. We talked about going for spring break once but it didn't work out... My boyfriend has only been during the school year. I also have always wanted to go to the christmas one that would be sweet.

Hello! I wanna go to the 24 hour EDM But I think my camp going days are over. Parentals won't give me money to go. Plus I'm kinda old (high school senior this year). Although last time I went there was a girl on our team who was entering college that Fall ... but I still have no money. LOL. Do they ...

Except I know I've seen pictures of *real* female astronauts taken in the 80's where they have the vector/meatball logo on their jackets. I've heard they stopped using the vector before, but that doesn't explain why they still wore them in those photographs...

I learned after my first trip to camp that trying to talk to a school about anything to do with space can be brutal. I came back and talked to my school board as an 8th grader and even they were a little unappreciative to hear my speech. Then in my sophmore year i tried to do a presentation on the ...

Ha ha now are you guy's breaking the PDA rule again? Tisk tisk
A new movie would be good, it could be like all those cliche teenage movies but for nerds!

You may be right and you may be wrong, but this editorial from space.com suggests a slightly more optimistic viewpoint...

I wanna go! Mememe! Unfortunately I can't :cry: I can just imagine asking my parents for $1299 :lol: Plus I have an internship over the summer, which will take most of my time, not tat I'm about to complain about that :D And I'm ooooold. I'm starting college in the fall. Eek. So I guess I can't go, ...

None at all!
*runs around the house* I'm all aloooooone...
... except for my parents and my cat who are mad at me for running around the house and shouting But I don't have any siblings, no.

Actually, the Apollo missions were carried out with only slightly more money (in today's dollars) than the NASA of today. The difference is how they used it. If we follow the Mars Direct plan (which it doesn't look like we are, but I'm just putting ideas out there), then a manned mission to Mars cou...

I attended catholic school for a year and a half, and during that time I had a very talented religion teacher. She told us that the Genesis story was not necessarily true, and that the story of Creation and Adam and Eve were oral tradition handed down by the Jews, the same as the Ancient Greeks and ...

Aye, it's been awhile since I've posted here 8O Anyway I heard that Bush WILL announce a return to the moon, as soon as this Wednesday. That is great news, but the Bush and space haters are already all over it like sharks on a bloody minnow. You probably all knew that already but I thought I would p...

I didnt know that Von Braun worked for Disney until just yesterday when at Explorers we had a very in depth discussion about the history of rocketry. I have a pen from tomorrow land that I got last summer, hich is rocket shaped and has stars on it and then Mickey Mouse's head as the little thing you...

Okay thanks for the info. Sorry I haven't been online in forever (not like anyone noticed but hey). I just remember learning about how coke could be the only sponsor of NASA and astronauts couldnt use any other kind of brand name. But maybe I misheard. I went to Johnson Space Center last month and s...

All right. Every time I've been to space camp, they go to great lengths to tell us that Coke is the official soft drink of NASA, nay, Coke is the official EVERYTHING of NASA, and all other brand name products, especially other soft drinks, are the work of satan and have no place in the space program...

If it is full then why is it still listed on the site? I thought they took it down once it was full ... oh well so much for that idea

Yes, that's the one my boyfriend and I are thinking about going to. We doubt we'll actually be able to pull it off, but it's wonderful to conspire about I want to goooooo....

Hear hear! Anyone who says that we should stop space flight altogether is a bloody idiot and that is all there is to it :evil: We need to get the space shuttle back up, HOWEVER, I do believe that we have been doing nothing productive (other than ISS) for too long, and that we need government backing...

Yeah i went 5 day once and 6 day once I think? The second year it was longer... I've never been in the off season, but I seriously considered going for spring break last year. I'd like to go to christmas camp but I do have parents who are like "NO! Christmas=family" so that's out of the qu...
