Cape Breton space launch clears another hurdle

Planet Space and NASA are sharing information. This could lead to the construction of a launch pad just outside of Florence, NS. Yes indeed, space travel just may come to Cape Breton. According to their web site,
PlanetSpace expects to fly 2,000 new astronauts in the first five years of operation. These astronauts will earn their wings on a sub-orbital space flight onboard the Canadian Arrow.
When it does, I can't wait to put in for my ACOA grant for "Outer space land". There used to be a video store in Riverview in the shape of a space saucer, there was a rocket ship in Sussex many years ago, there is a life replica size space shuttle in PEI, and there has to be enough spare parts in the junkyards of Atlantic Canada to put together a pretty good space park.

I hear they're using Canjet's old planes.

I think you should put together a consortium to lobby the government for funding to build a space park...remember hire a good lobby firm and you could be successful
