Progress Towards Flight!

Probably the most useful skill I have ever learned, for my little domain of activity in life, is sailmaking. It taught me to make strong bonds in textiles and rope, both of which are central to my space suit project. Today, a little detail work, seen in photo below; also another photo with two team members, Paulina Spaceflight and JP! New suit is light, cheap, and works! Will reveal entirely before long!

The London Times

Recently my project is part of a story in the Times of London; the article mistakenly indicates that I will test my suit by jumping from my balloon at high altitude, but actually I will only be jumping in emergency circumstances and plan to launch and land my craft in a controlled manner!



Very busy; new suit in production for flying this summer, and a lot of writing projects.

Roughly-daily updates at Twitter.
