Europe's Biggest Amateur Rocket Completes Test-Firing
Michael Eriksen writes "The Danish amateur rocket group Copenhagen Suborbitals has successfully test fired their rocket (article in Danish). It is a 90,000 kW monster delivering a total of 140,000 N. According to the group, this is by far the biggest amateur rocket ever fired in Europe. The final goal is a manned (!) low-orbital flight."
FIRST
Why is this cute and interesting when done by a group of European amateurs and a global threat when done in North Korea?
Inexplicably, the European amateurs don't have a nuclear warhead development programme.
The Danes of course know that firing nukes at their neighbours would amount to shitting in their own back yard. The North Koreans on the other hand...

Oh wait, is it not funny when people take your sig and use it against you?
When North Korea launches, we're reminded that they've tried detonating nuclear weapons.
As opposed to your country never even thinking of launching nukes or other countries.
Oh, wait...
Any sufficiently advanced intelligence is indistinguishable from stupidity.
Yeah right. Always. Period. They would never want to have any science, other than that.
Play that thought trough to the end. Please do.
See. It's very very stupid. And call the North Koreans more crazy and stupid than the Neocon and older Governments of the USA, but they are not that stupid.
