Not sure if I am "qualified" but I sure would volunteer.

Aye, I here ye...

Dreamed of going to space since I was a wee lad. Spoke of it to the wife one night while looking at the moon on a warm summers eve. Said I'd give anything to go there even if it was for good.

She said she didn't really want to go. Asked if I had to choose between going to the moon and staying on earth with her if I'd pick the moon. I gathered from her response that "In a heartbeat" was not the answer she was looking for ;-)

It was the truth though.

I'm banking on Burt Rutan to revamp the way space travel happens. Even if he just gets the X-Prize he'll have shown that you can do space travel for a few hundred million instead of billions that Nasa wants.
