Wow, I asked the same thing. I mean, maybe in the US or UK airspace considerations might be a problem. But what about, say, international waters? Peru? Or how about Russia right? They seem pretty lax about most things. I wouldn't imagine launching oneself (or ones monkey) into space would be much of a problem. given that you are far enough away from everyone and everything that is - I revisit the russia/international water argument.
But despite my thoughts and assumptions "anonymous coward" tells me. "Yes you do [need a license/permmision]. You can't legally launch things up randomly in the sky. Hitting a plane at the present time would brand you as a terrorist. The difference is that space angencies "owns" their portion of the sky.". Ohh well, there's always the russians
I must say, The least Billy could do is launch a remote controlled space shuttle into orbit and rendevous with the ISS. He could have a camera beam his face to an lcd on the front so he could pull up to one of the viewports and scare the astronauts.
I hope the monkey cameraman is ok!
So what are the laws on space? Can just anybody who wants to ( i.e. has enough cash ) build a rocket and go to space.
Supposing, of course the materials to build said spacecraft were not in the several hundred million to billion range?
Furthermore, can one send a monkey up? To test things on. In a Zero G environment.
I mean, anyone can go up in the air right? With an ultralite, or circus cannon, without a pilots license.
Does one need a Space license?
uh, that "Here Here" was for the original entry.
not the one about the cursing and cheating.
I'm still new to this slashdotting and now realise that SPECIFYING what one is saying about whom is rather important.

Seems Like 4 to me.
