I was just reading this article about Obama's visit to see Musk and the Falcon 9.
"The president spent 15 minutes walking around the pad and rocket asking me questions about it," Musk said. "For a non-engineer, he displayed an impressive understanding."
Musk told Spaceflight Now that Obama specifically asked what modifications are required for the Falcon 9 rocket and Dragon capsule to be ready for human occupants.
Not to sound all crazy or nothing, but did Musk just violate ITAR?
;-)
Actually, I have to give props to the pres on this one. (even a broken clock...) This should work a lot better then any manned flight NASA has done since Skylab.
