<p>[QUOTE="Skyman, post: 3521521, member: 28299"]Given the Apollo 11 commemorative coins of this year, as well as the US Mint's "Rocket" holder, I think that anybody that has a kid or grandkid in K-12 might be interested in this. Basically, if they (well, the first 10,000 to do so) send a white postcard with their vision, either drawn or written, about millions of people living or working in space, to Blue Origin, then Blue Origin will send those postcards into space aboard their New Shepard rocket. The New Shepard is a suborbital rocket, but it does pass the Karman line, 100 km. in altitude, so it does reach space. Blue Origin will then return the postcard to that child.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here's a link about it:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.collectspace.com/news/news-051119a-blueorigin-club-space-postcards.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.collectspace.com/news/news-051119a-blueorigin-club-space-postcards.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.collectspace.com/news/news-051119a-blueorigin-club-space-postcards.html</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
