Looks cool Paul, I've i think spacecraft that land in and are able to travel
in or even under water is an interesting, probably very viable and possibly
economic concept.
I was forntunate enough to have attended a lecture by Sid Mead at my college
last year, and while i have to say that I'm not extremely fond of his work,
I was extremely astonished at the 747's he did, and concepts for the ones
that never were actually made.... i mean on board elevators that are
stabalized by its tube being filled with water!?!?!? pretty crazy stuff.
