9. South Africa begins Project: AIDS
Looks good. However there was no mention of Iraq or Afghanistan but knowing sheep I guess there is a reason behind that. Ya thats right United Kingdom is going green!!
OOC: Only if they bought the Soyuz vehicle along with it. Building a space-vehicle capable of sustaining life support to modern standards (including radiation shielding along with the avionics and so on) is neither cheap nor quick, and doing it in 2 years when it took the American program 3.5 years to go from nothing to a manned flight--with vastly more budget and less stringent requirements, is fairly ridiculous. Europe has Ariana boosters, admittedly, but those are payload boosters.General question Re: ESA man in space, they could really do it now with their Soyuz launchers bought from Russia. Or do you mean with their own technology (in which case 2 years is...ambitious)?
ooc well when you got money nothing is absurd. Just remember we can build a rocket, we can build a space vehicle and we can even make the space shuttle go up, but will it stay up is the question.
silver... if you invaded me....
OOC: Wrong. The question is whether it's cost-effective and survivable. And unless vehicles were bought from elsewhere, I certainly doubt either.but will it stay up is the question.
