Armadillos in space? could that be possible? :lol: :lol: :lol:

http://www.cnn.com/2003/TECH/space/09/2 ... index.html

a quote from the CNN story:

Quote:
The teams are Scaled Composites, led by aviation maverick Burt Rutan, and Armadillo Aerospace, a Dallas group headed by John Carmack, a computer game designer who made a fortune on "Doom" and "Quake."

I knew it would happen! Not only are they good pets but they are also passable pilots if you have enough duct tape.
