    Letting you know angry pick up all the ferry company bonus pamphlet's.. If your going to travel a bit with your channel in Europe you will find using the ferry is the best and cheapest way . May even do yourself a favour and network with some truckers and or shipping people while your there. I understand your busy but exchanging a bit of work for passage , hitching with a truck driver or joining the ferry clubs greatly reduce your freight expenses .Shetland will never ever tolerate those large cruise liners so dont worry about that . Getting a cabin on a empty ferry is pretty easy and cheap sometimes no extra cost if you join those mailing lists and clubs ..As for a ton of payload . I believe with the micro satelite construction and technology and with the space junk problems a ton of payload aint something to sniff at. Getting away from space there was an idea years ago I saw on tomorrows world an old BBC technology show. They once had a part of an episode where instead of using satellites for satellite uses they showed very tiny air ships that were high altitude doing that job. Back to space on the same show they had a micro foundry that produced metal beams and sheat work that was the size of a medium size site cement mixer and one of its applications was to manufacture in space . Now in the States one of my bosses described something very similar but it only shaped set size sheet metal. It was a lorry that made gutters for houses. It was the size of a lorry . This one one the show was much smaller and did everything with most metals and alloys . I have never seen either of those inventions in use but ive seen a startup proposal of a large array of those foundries that manufacture and put together whole space habitats in alloy metal ,,,

    The Carnival Celebration cruise ship has a maximum capacity of 6,500 passengers, but can accommodate 5,374 passengers at double occupancy. The ship has 2,687 staterooms, including 82 accessible staterooms. I wonder what a 10's of thousands cruise ship would look like?

    It’s a lovely place shetland, but I do wonder about the weather affecting operations as it’s so bad trees won’t grow, and it’s totally dark for most of the winter but on the flip side it’s 24 hours of daylight for most of the summer. But that aside I live on the moray coast so I’m hoping to catch a glimpse of the rockets going up, thank you for all you do, as always very interesting and inspiring

    AA .... From the views provided, it appears that Aberdeen is a good location for an offshore wind farm. The North Atlantic is prevalent with heavy gusts if wind and storms regularly. So power from wind for the little Hobbitom is a great choice.
    Orkney .... I may have an answer for your Jordan, as to why anyone would choose that region of Britania as home.
    The. Answer: Whaling and Fishing.
    ..... If you compare Orkney to the northearn coast of the North America, it is similar, and the main ecomony for the region was also Fishing and Whaling.
    Isnt it obvious, by the typography of the region. The area of shetland is a Cetaceans breeding ground and feeding ground
