Thanks, Siham. There's already so much space junk out their orbiting Earth, we sure don't need any used yachts floating around! Cosmic rays are certainly a huge danger, especially for long journeys like going to Mars.
The commercialization of space is developing quicker and quicker, but I find it interesting that nobody has been to the moon in fifty years!

Thanks, Matt.
When I was mentioned to a friend that I was working on those bouts-rimés, she suggested I try writing one about the planned tours for rich folks on the ISS. I thought it was a good idea. Then after I wrote the poem, I thought, since it's current news, why not submit it to NVN? I was delighted when James accepted it.
