This is good that the Boy Scouts of America is keeping the dream of spaceflight alive. I am so disappointed in the cancellation of Project Constellation. I just wonder if this new generation will be bound to Low Earth Orbit, or, even worse, if any of them will even get the chance to realize the dream of flying in outer space at all. With our myopic leadership, or, rather the absolute failure of leadership from the White House as far as Human Space Exploration is concerned, Americans' ability to fly in outer space may soon be something remembered as a distant memory, rather than a reality. So are will filling these children with a false hope by furthering their frontiers by breaking a record? I hope not!!! Yet our current administration is not concerned with breaking records because they lack the vision that these children's youth leaders have. Amazing!!!

Still, it's a pretty cool feat. Actually, they tried to launch over 1000, but some misfired. Still, it’s a pretty cool feat.

Weak. Not a future marketer in the bunch. Pack 990 and Troop 990 stopped at rocket number 965? Weak. Not a future marketer in the bunch.
