Title: Ares 1 Rocket

They fired the test rocket today. A buddy of mine shoots for NASA and has to go out to Utah every couple weeks to shoot this thing. He\'s there now for this fire. God that must be awesome to see live. Or should I say feel live.

I think what was so mind boggling was just how instant the power was.

Pretty awesome.
Now if only Congress would fund NASA so we could actually undertake a mission to the Moon.

Yeah, you have to admit it does seem pretty silly that we are testing rockets to take us to the moon when we have been there multiple times already.
