We'll find sentient life in space, clasify them as fauna, kill half of them, try to breed them out with good Australians as a kindness, and spend the next hundred years giving them benefits to spend on grog. It'll be great.

I think this the first time a post has been too Australian for me to read, unless I'm missing something obvious here :v:

Is it possible to prepare and inhale cannabis while experiencing little to no gravity using a contraption that would make this possible such as a bong that is made out of a used and possibly dirty gatorade bottle using a piece of garden hose that was most likely stolen from someone's property
[QUOTE=Johnny Joe;52714529]Now they can launch all their horrible, terrifying creatures into space.[/QUOTE]
But if we launch all australians into space how will the animals feed?
[QUOTE=Animosus;52715000]Chances are though they are going to use RTTN (Rocket to Near Earth Orbit) then use a fire extinguisher to push the final bit into orbit, so that we can get our space program running Sooner, Cheaper and More affordably ™
In all seriousness though, this is fucking awesome news![/QUOTE]
Lets just hope they put a dash cam on the capsule. And any rovers they send up.

Seriously though, have they said where they're gonna launch from? surely not in australia.

We have a launch site courtesy of the UK and US. It will need to be modernised but all the heavily lifting is already done.
Thank you Cold War and nuclear weapons testing.

I hope Amberley airbase will be expanded and used for the space programme. We are already a designated spot for NASA to land their spacecraft at in case. Also, it would provide tons of jobs around this area

Landing is fine, it's launching I'm more worried about, that far off the equator is gonna be garbage.

Haha thanks, I had just never heard gatorade saxophone before!
I don't think it's likely they will try to build their own rocket, if they buddy up with the ESA woomera will probably just be used for ariane 6 at best (I don't know if the pad there is even big enough for that; those pads were mostly built for much smaller rockets, and of course have been abandoned for decades. It will take major work either way)
I bet they're just starting out with payloads/experiments, and I would guess the news in recent years of new attempts at giant satellite constellations has pushed the australian government into doing this with hopes of cashing in and creating a viable industry
Space does need more sick cunts
It makes sence - who needs rocketboosters when your ship can simply fall into sky.
Every time I see this thread title I read it in Oprah's voice. :v:
You get a space agency! And you get a space agency! Not you NK!
Oh great, now in 10 years time Aussies and Kiwis will be debating on who invented their space race first...

Cracking Open a Cold War with the boys?
I imagine Australians trying to use the cold, lifeless vacuum of space to chill their beers.
This is how Borderlands TPS starts
