That makes no sense.

If BAe don't take risks, then surely the fact that they have just invested millions in the company means they don't think it is a risk?

You can't have it both ways.

NASA, ESA and BAe all think you are wrong.

I'm willing to believe that you are a Nobel prize winning rocket scientist that knows better than them......

.....oh no, wait.


It is easy to sit back with no expertise and say "it'll never work" about all new inventions, and 90% of the time you will be right and can act smug, but it doesn't make you a decent human being.
If it weren't for those willing to strive and push the boundaries, we we would still be wearing hides.
