Space Shuttle Launch on ST John!

Post by TouristTrapCheryl »

.
BREAKING NEWS • DATELINE: 4.1.2011

FIRST EVER SPACE "TOURIST" LAUNCH IS A HUGE SUCCESS!
The private investors who purchased the Space Shuttle program from NASA
successfully launched their first all civilian sight-seeing shuttle today! Shortly after
this morning's successful launch, once the cheers of "Drink Right Propulsion Left"
died down, a lone British sounding shout of "Bollocks." was heard coming from
a neighboring island just northeast of the new launch pad in John's Folly, ST John USVI.

Remember -- Beal Aerospace negotiated for a rocket launching facility on St Croix - so 'it could happen'.
