What ever happened to the satellite thingy, or maybe launch pad thing, where Tonga was supposed to be the best place for something and have the market cornered? Haven't heard a word in years. It was supposed to make the King there the richest man in the world.

There have been some astronauts splash down in the area back when they were still doing that; I didn't know they were thinking of doing that in reverse out there.

Tonga didn't get the contract. It went to another Pacific island country, but my hubby and I can't remember which at the moment(it's that age thing.LOL).
