Dear Readers,

A couple of days ago I had some fierce arguments with a couple of guys from Copenhagen Suborbitals - about trash and cleaning up. Everyone ended up being pissed at each other for no reason, based on this ridiculous case. This happen once in a while - internal arguments on the floor or group-mail. Small details that really mean nothing and end up being* the* thing which makes you explode.

Well, after all we are humans and even a project like has normal tedious work-days.

When this happens we have to remind ourselves where we are going with all this - and the great moments it gives us and everyone else who has decided to help out and support us.

The end-goal is what matters and we must take care of each other.

Someone else reminded us of all that and I am proud to announce that FAI has nominated Copenhagen Suborbitals for the FAI Breitling Milestone Award 2013.

Peter and myself will be going to this event in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia next week, to see if we can flip a nomination around for a win :)

First of all I wanna give my thanks to the FAI for the nomination but more important I have told everyone at Copenhagen Suborbitals to be proud as well - for the hard work they and everyone else did. This project and the nomination was not possible without the fine people at CS and the amazing people at the Copenhagen Suborbitals Support group who supports us every month mentally and financially. Thanks to all companies and donators around the world. Thanks to readers of our blogs and social media posting.

This nomination is dedicated all of you - who are helping us send a man into space on a suborbital ride.

Ad Astra
