[BigKwell]

Any idea when the first Soyuz launch from South America is going to be?

So who again are they going to sell the Hellium 3 to when the ozone layer is destroyed ??

[Leifthrasir]

Hellium 3 is the required fuel for fusion reactors. Hellium 3 is extremely rare on earth but the moon is covered with it.

[RUlegaleagle]

No reason for manned space launch for Europeans, unless commercial interests override the political ones.

[RemiG2006]

There is one and it's called hellium 3. If we'd started exploring Moon first Euro would became new reserve currency of the World. The stakes are high!
