   Colorado is actively lobbying to become a hub for suborbital space planes in a worldwide network of suborbital point-to-point travel. This actually makes a lot of sense to anyone who has ever been to the Denver airport

Subby, the Denver Airport is already the International Headquarters for the New World Order, backed by the British crown and a powerful coalition of Nazis and the Illuminati, and is working actively toward mass genocide. If space travel is now to be added to their insidious agenda, we may all be doomed.

Suborbital flight can be tricky. If you ascend too high, the air isn't think enough to provide lift, and you may end up descending too fast to prevent burning up in the atmosphere.

This is one of the comments:

"Alright people calm the fark down!
There is many conspiracy theories all around the world, to China to America. However, this is just a theory. Now, even in the 1800s there was conspiracy theories about how the world will end or how the government work. But people are to stupid to realize that these are just THEORIES. If people could read a dictionary theories are things that can possibly be true, but yet aren't proven just yet. Now the paintings are odd, but that is nothing to freak out about!"

//THAT'S RIGHT, WE CAN'T HAVE ANYONE FREAK OUT THERE, OK! WE'VE GOTTA KEEP OUR COMPOSURE... WE GOTTA JUST KEEP OUR COMPOSURE!!!!!"

I'm torn between thinking the more "spaceports" that are created the more opportunity for people interesting in this industry, and too many spaceports dilutes the networking effect of the community and it would be better to have a few regional spaceports where interested workers, engineers, founders, money, could concentrate.

exactly what suborbital points are people traveling between? as i understand it, there isn't much real estate up there and not much demand for travel to those points. also, last i checked colorado isn't exactly located in the suborbit to be a useful hub.

IDK about the obsession with its butt, but I do know for a fact that it did fall over and crush the dude who made it.

impaler: Suborbital flight can be tricky. If you ascend too high, the air isn't think enough to provide lift, and you may end up descending too fast to prevent burning up in the atmosphere.

A sub-orbital flight is generally a ballistic trajectory that takes advantage of the high velocities and high altitudes required. Once you reach that point, lift is assumed to be irrelevant since orbital velocity is required to generate lift above the Karman line (62 miles) and you are on a ballistic trajectory. Descent is controlled by your attitude and flight profile, and sub-orbital craft are designed for re-entry stresses.

Bluecifer's "undercarriage" is so detailed that you can see things from the road you can't even see on a farm. That said... why would I want suborbital flight, there are already instant point to point transporter pads in Illumnati lounge #7 that can take me to any world domination opportunity in the blink of a third shining eye.

In fact, the Denver Airport is linked by underground tunnel to an underground base at Dulce, New Mexico. The grays were allowed a secret expermentation facility which may be the cause of all the animal mutilation cases. The aliens are particurly interested in genetics, reporductive systems, etc. It is believed that they have done some expiriments and created new cross-species hybrids between man and alien or animal and man (the latter having been done by Stalin's regime to create a super ape with human intelligence warrior, possibly under the direction of the scientist Illya Ivanov). I digress.

In any case, a network of underground tunnels was created by the US government in cooperation with the Grays of Dulce. Let me take a step back, the humans and the aliens were cooperating back in the 50's and 60's - in fact some of the stealth technology and other aerospace technologies which are not really public knowledge yet, were given by the aliens to the US government - like much of the rumours on craft surfacing from so-called Area 51 and Wright Patterson. This all originated from the Rosewell crash. The aliens did show up later and were able to enter into an "interspecies" or "intergalactic" treaty whereby they retrieved the survivor(s) and bodies from said crash and allowed the US government to retain the crashed craft and some other items. Also part of the treaty allowed the aliens to build a facilty at Dulces which they maintain to this day.

In close contact with the aliens and allowed access to part of the underground structure were human workers (government employees both civilian and military). The aliens did their expirments apparently in the deeper levels where humans were not allowed. Apparently there was a problem with communication between the aliens and the humans - it is not known if there was a problem with translation and the humans or the aliens thought there was a hostile act performed. I personally am not sure because there shouldnt have been any translation problem as the aliens communicate via telepathy. In any case, there was a battle or conflict between the aliens and the humans around the 1970's or 80's. I wont get too much into that, but further discussion of this is available in interviews with former government employee at Dulces, Phil Schnieder or Paul Bennewitz or John Lear.

A treaty was again concluded and for whatever reason a network of underground tunnels, possibly with a high speed train system, was built and is currently being operated. Many believe it was done with Bechtel corporation tunnelling devices and methods perfected and built (and patented!) in the last decade or so. Personally, if we see how long and flawed a big human tunnelling project like the Boston "big Dig" was, I think really in fact, this network of tunnels must have been done with some alien technology. Certainly, they were able to build extensive tunnels quickly at Dulces and there is a strong possibility they maintain some seabases under our oceans which in a way would be more convenient politically, as they dont have to enter into any treaties with any human government.

Anyhow, my apologies, I went off a bit on a tangent. One of the main links with the tunnels is certainly the new Denver International Airport. This tunnel system tends to connect airports and military facilities in the west coast and mountain region. The purpose for this is largely unknown by observors like myself - maybe both sides theorized this would be the best way to ferry troops and scientists around secretly? To gain technological secrets and equipment from Dulces easily? For now, its unknown. This would account for a lot of the strange stories of bad luck or nonsense about it being an HQ for the illuminati. Such nonsense. In fact, this all originates from the link with alien/human crews on the tunnel system. I'm fairly certain that key airport officials and some govt officials in Colorado have been fully briefed on this system and maybe even some military and maintenance crews are housed below the airport in order to keep eye on the tunnel system.

Now, its my proposal that if Colorado wants to be a competitive spaceport maybe its officials in the know can use the advantages as mentioned in this article and also the fact is all they have to do is get on a train and visit our alien visitor/ambassadors at Dulces. And in secret coordination with the aerospace companies in their fine state and the US federal/military authorities with Top Secret clearance for the Dulce base, could start negotiations with the aliens about obtaining the relevant technologies for civillian space travel. To pacify the concerns of US military authorities, the rquest does not include stuff on cloaking/stealth technologies, folding space, time travel, or weapon systems of any type. And obviously it has nothing to do with the biological/genetic expiriments which were discussed earlier. We're obviously talking about transportation - maybe involving magnetic drives, pulse, scram jet stuff. Nothing too exotic, as we're talking about getting to London or Tokyo, not the next star system over. ha ha. With such methods Colorado would have an obvious advantage over everyone else (except the military of course) with their chemical rockets and fossil fuelled planes. But, the next issue is what can Colorado or the Denver airport authorities offer to the aliens for such technology. But, maybe its something that can be discussed at a later time.

There are 3 types of space travel: suborbital, orbital, and superorbital.

Depends on the girl. If you're the type of girl who is willing to work around his schedule, show up at his lab with food, and take care of all the planning for outings (and not get mad if he has to cancel), they have time to date. Heck I once showed up dressed for the afternoon symphony to tell him "sorry you can't go, let me give you a kiss before I go stag" and his boss said to him "are you kidding me, get the heck out of here and go to the concert, it can wait four hours you idiot".

Didn't crush him. A sharp edge cut him when a part fell and he bled to death.

"Jiminez was by himself in his studio rushing to finish the nearly-completed Mustang. He was reportedly using a rope to hoist a section of the sculpture into place so it could be welded. The hoist broke and the piece fell on the 66-year-old, pinning him to the ground and slicing an artery in his leg. Jiminez died on his studio floor."

It is very creepily anatomically correct.
