Space Colonies, Outposts, Fuel Stops and Solar System Exploration

!±8± Space Colonies, Outposts, Fuel Stops and Solar System Exploration

We are told by NASA and the Bush Administration that we are setting our sites on manned space missions to the moon and mars and to eventually set up human colonies on each. I agree as you probably do that this is indeed a good start. Also having such colonies set up allows for Space Exploration pit stops for missions far beyond in our own solar system and elsewhere as well.

They figure we will have a human colony on Mars by 2030 or so and the leap-frog concept makes sense indeed, but also realize that private enterprise can get us there a lot sooner than NASA. You have to have a good jumping off point and outposts to assist in the game, but personally I am for sooner rather than later and more rather than less. And this is not just about budgets either, as it is about attitude and strength of character. It is more about vision than only money. Throwing money at the problem is government's theory.

I say lets change attitude and strap a crap load of rockets on a space shuttle and have it rendezvous with another set of rockets, strap them on and let them do a one-way mission and set up camp now, as in this year. Land the whole friggin thing there dig a hole set up the colony now. Load the space shuttle for bear with all sorts of expandable SpaceHab type systems and pods attached for cargo to live for 10-years until the rest of the space folks figure out what they are doing, get their act together and wish to come join in the fun. Meanwhile have those Mars Colony people talk and communicate with us here. Now that is the PR needed to ignite the imagination.

We need to stop wimp'ing around. I just hate weakness, especially considering the Apollo risks and rewards as an example of what can be done. What do you think about a Mars Colony and the need for Pit Stops, re-fueling stations and the leap-frog concept in general? Do, consider this in 2006.

In-Ground Basketball Hoops and Goals

!±8± In-Ground Basketball Hoops and Goals

Basketball has many benefits in and of itself. It is a great form of exercise, relieves stress, lets off steam, helps kids with coordination, and can bring family and friends together for a time of friendly competition. With all these benefits, wouldn't it be great to have your own basketball goal at home? There are many choices available when it comes to home basketball systems. One of the most popular home basketball systems is the in-ground basketball goal.

In-ground basketball goals are those that are put into the ground for a permanent home basketball goal. If you are pressed for space, you can install your in-ground goal next to your driveway. This will allow you to use your driveway as your court. Make sure it is far enough away so that cars can pull in safely, but close enough to use the driveway as your court.

If you have more space that you can dedicate to your basketball goal, you can install your in-ground goal in the background as part of a concrete area you can use as your court. This will allow you to play in an area that is just for basketball. Once you choose where your goal will go, you can begin the installation.

Installing an in-ground system can be done professionally, or you can do it yourself. If you are doing it yourself, you will want to lay out everything that came with your in-ground goal so you can have easy access to each part as needed. After that, you can move forward with digging the hole.

The depth of the hole will depend on what type and size of system you have. Follow the directions for depth and width very carefully. The directions will also let you know how much cement you will need to set the pole in place. The average is 6-8 bags of concrete. You have to make sure the pole is placed at the correct depth to have the right height of 10' from the ground to the rim.

During the drying process, it is important to check your pole several times to make sure it is still level. Your pole should be flush with the playing surface. The concrete will take up to four hours to dry. Throughout the process be sure to tap the top of the concrete frequently to get rid of any air pockets. It is important to wait until it is completely dry before you finish the installation process.

Once your in-ground goal is installed, you have it for life. You have a permanent area for you, your kids, and friends to get together and have fun. In-ground systems can withstand all kinds of weather and, when installed properly, will be rust-resistant. In-ground systems are more durable and stable than portable systems.

In-ground basketball hoops are a great way to give your family a permanent place to play and learn the game of basketball. Your kids will love having friends over to shoot hoops. Friendly family competitions will give you family memories to last a lifetime.
