What a great story Andras. I would love to be a part of Mark's group but I don't do Facebook or use his brouser and I'm not signing up for anything past CEF. Heck, there isn't enough hours in the day for me now.

A right of passage and a badge of honor.

Thanks Bob, I was wondering after reading the article where actually that Babe Bee has wound up? Still in the Space Station, or, returned to the Earth?
It is so symbolic that this magnificent little toy went to the one of the highest places man so far has been able to reach,.except the Moon..Leroy Cox would be very proud to know..
