Space Race is On!
Skeelzania; Wombat News
Skeelzania has announced that they have developed and will be testing their new line in affordable space craft shortly. (http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=3182876#3182876) The “Desmadre” is reportedly the first space craft of any kind to be made entirely out of tortilla and will be powered by pinto bean salsa.
Jaime Martinez, the first Skeelzanian astronaut, is to test the craft this Wednesday.
We asked him what he thought of the use of tortilla instead of modern materials. “Well, it’s cheap, it’s light, and it’s made out of tortilla, you know” said Martinez.
The craft is made solely out of tortillas and burritos. (http://s6.invisionfree.com/International_Mall/index.php?showtopic=404) The craft, which is 40 feet long and weighs only 60,000 pounds, is scheduled to take off at the Skeelzanian space headquarters this Wednesday at 9 am (GMT+2).
Wombat News will bring you live updates as they happen – especially on re-fry .. erm .. re-entry.
