    Yeah, when I first heard what they are trying I was extremely sceptical. Watching some YouTube videos that talk through the physics involved didn’t help much. So I was extremely, surprised reading this headline and thinking they actually got something into orbit. I’m somehow both relieved and upset that they didn’t.
