To be honest, if it was me I?d be like ?nice trip guys? and be legging it across the tarmac. Bollocks if I?d want to go all that way and then risk being burnt to a crisp sitting on the runway waiting for the recovery vehicles? noooo:

Excellent pub event!

Wonder how much fuel they've got left... confused:
2 Barrels of Barman's homebrew I suspect, beats high octane rocket fuel any day and NASA likes the savings. Although if they had been told what they actually use to run the engines on that thing I could see the launch site becomming a ghost town before take off. scared:
