Merry Christmas! Happy Happy Hanukkah! Season’s
Greetings!
Every once in a great while it doesn’t hurt
to take a little time out to remember where we’ve been and to think about where
we’re going. We now live in a world that’s so hostile to everyone and in every way,
that mankind seems to have forgotten that for the most part we’re all pretty
much the same, with the same basic needs and desires.
All most of us want or really need is food, shelter,
good health, love, and to live in peace. If you have those things you’re in
better shape than 50% of the planet and since this is the season of Peace,
maybe we can put aside our differences, politics or whatever for just a few
moments, to consider helping a neighbor or someone less fortunate. And here’s a
strange thought; what if people could actually be grateful for whatever they
have?
Tis the season to be jolly and for giving to
those in need. While we’re all curled up on the sofa in a warm home checking
the hobby stores for great rocketry buys, there might be a kid right on your
street or close by who doesn’t have enough to eat or a warm jacket. That kid
doesn’t care about hobbies or who went to the moon.
Open your eyes, look around and be
compassionate. For someone, or some family, you might be the only one who can
make a difference.
Please, don’t be a Grinch.

Above you see a rare photo of Dave Miller, appropriately dressed in black as owner of the clandestine black ops organization
known as Sirius Rocketry! What does he do in his spare time? He reads Rocket Babe, what else?
That's a nice looking Cestris Fighter he's holding too! Get yours from https://www.siriusrocketry.com
Verna Starr Cestris Fighter!
Above you see our favorite Sirius kit, the Cestris. The kit is intended to fly on a single engine but it was easily modified
to a 3 engine cluster complete with Verna Starr fighter decals, also available from Sirius.

The Mercury space suit. Looks like it came
right out of an old 50's sci-fi movie.
The Gemini suits weren't much better and there
were 2 of them. There wasn't much room in the capsule to begin with.
Then for Apollo there were 3 men in a
slightly larger capsule and once outside they had a back pack! I guess that was for lunch or something.
Then, came the shuttle suits. There was
much more room but for some reason they went from white, to a hideous Halloween orange. I bet the guy that came up with that
suit was a Broncos fan.
Well, as the old cigarette commercial
used to say, "You've come a long way baby, to get where you got to today!" Maybe one day NASA will come up with a suit that's
easy to wear and easy to look at... but I doubt it.
Then
again, NO ONE wants to see Scott Kelly wearing one of Rocket Babe's suits.

She'll go with you anywhere! Kevin, owner and moderator at the Alien Soup sci-fi
forum, enjoys Rocket Babe - Dust Storm between innings at a recent ballgame!
