  1. What a desolate patch of the planet. Without the need for oil, the rest of the world would never care it existed.

    1. Desolate? that's the Nile delta to the left. Rich soil and home to millions of people with civilizations dating back thousands of years.

  3. I think it’s rather cool that the modern technology is juxtaposed to the Great Pyramid of Giza.

  4. So if the world is flat.....Then why can't you see the USA in that pic? I know it should be to the left of those continents shown. But still, if the scale was correct and the USA was really off to the left, in a flat world, than the USA would be the size of Delaware.

    1. If the world was flat then a spacecraft couldn't orbit, so that means this is a fake picture.

  5. Starliner, built like an AMC Gremlin.

  6. Unfortunately, helium leaks in the thruster controls have delayed the return landing. The question is whether the capsule is safe enough for astronauts to return in it.

    Maybe Russia has a spare Soyus.

    Anyway, another example of Boeing incompetence. The MBA degree continues to destroy the American economy
