Wouldn't that be a trip? I'd have to get NBC to cover the cost.

Hopefully the Chinese will not take the Russian approach (limited broadcast and media) to the Shenzhou-5 launch. I watched Glenn's launch on TV at school, and my classroom had a cardboard mockup of the Mercury capsule - courtesy of McDonnell (located 100 miles south in St. Louis). Then I attended John Glenn's 1998 Discovery flight at the Cape. It looks liek the launch will be about 4 weeks before the Centennial of the Wright Broathers flight. G.
