As of this updated OP; the rocket engine is complete.
Body plans are being drafted and the engine being tested extensively to see how it deals with heat.[/release]
[release]Goals
Current goal: Raise money & achieve 40,000 ft of flight.[/release]
[release]Media
A video coming very shortly. I don't know if it'll be in 720p, but if anybody wants to send me a camera that can record good quality, that'd be great.[/release]

EDITING it

I don't think 12 year olds will be able to accomplish space travel.

excellent 2nd post
I like space. It's pretty.
Something Awful did this first. We're like their children.
Doesn't hurt to start somewhere, it's up to us civilians to get involved in the space industry and stop relying on the government. It's the only way we'll ever reach the stars.

boxforts: the final frontier :xd:
This reminds me of the time when we went to the moon
This is incredibly optimistic yet I kinda wish it succeeds. Godspeed?
Make this happen. Please.
I've just donated twenty billion dollars to this program, godspeed gentlemen,
I'll get my team of monkey scientist and share holders to build and fund this project.
Honestly, think how cool it would be to, as a community, view the planets of our solar system on a live feed rather then just through some pictures that are on the internet, maybe even get a close up view of the surface of mars. Telescopes located on Earth are limited because we have to go through a day and night cycle, but when you have a telescope in space, the possibilities are endless and you are able to view things much clearer then you'd ever be able to on Earth.
I can donate the blood and sweat. Does it matter if it's not mine?
Has to be yours, sorry.
Screw copying the goons, we need to make a submarine.

It would make more sense if you had timed recordings over intervals of time.. that's just my opinion though.
Does it take a rocket scientist to figure that this is not going to work?
We have to get into space before 4chan! [b]We cannot allow a space race gap![/b]
PM me I was the moon lander for Apollo.

Not sending any humans, to risky.
I'll be the idea guy.
I dont see anyone from Facepunch making rockets and building space stations.
Once you get to the moon, spam "John Madden" over your radio
Space station =/= Israelite. Another note, this is a group effort, I will be contributing not only as the ideas guy but assisting with building, finding suitable land, and preparing systems for the satellites launch.
