Homemade Spacecraft

This video is from a father and son team called the Brooklyn Space Program.  From their site:

The Brooklyn Space Program is a organization based in New York City dedicated to scientific experiments, engineering, design and education.  Our interest is to inspire others and push the bounds of creativity and innovation.

This is a great example of your average citizen taking space exploration into his own hands!  I was always under the impression that it would be virtually impossible to acquire the resources needed to send a craft into space, but I have been proven wrong.  I hope this kid ends up being the first person on Mars…
