So you DO want NASA to give you the original film reels.
Alright then, while you're at it, can you get me the original film reel for 2001: A Space Odyssey?
I want proof that movie existed, not faked digital copies, the original film.
2001 : A Space Odyssey never happened and you can't provide proof that's up to my standards.

Use air pressure or water pressure stored in a 2L bottle to push the vehicle 20 feet.You can find plans here: http://www.instructables.com/id/Bottle-Rocket-How-To/

Find a pressure that pushes it exactly 20 feet. You should determine this pressure on the terrain that the test will be on EG the parking lot.
The last 5 feet you can use a spring-loaded projectile that fires off the back. The projectile has to have enough mass to push it 5 feet. You can calculate the mass of the projectile using rudimentary physics (but friction from terrain will change your result).

This.

Religion doesn't even TRY to move beyond the conclusions it has already made.

Couldn't they y'know, be a bit creative at least? To fit in with current findings? Venus is Hell, the Sun is God, etc.

Religion, I am disappoint.

Next decent one is in 2019!

Over the last couple months I have become fascinated by lunar settlement. Primarily by using multiple reusable spacecraft to allow for the cost of settlement to be economically viable. In my idea there would be three spacecraft for ferrying humans to the moon and back. The first would take only humans to low earth orbit, I think that a fully reusable two stage spaceplane would be best for this task(based of how the space shuttle was originally designed). Then a spacecraft using nuclear thermal engines would take the crew from earth orbit to lunar orbit. Then a spacecraft based on the original LEM, would take the crew to the surface.

To get back to earth the LEM based spacecraft would blast of from the surface preform a lunar orbit rendezvous with the orbiting nuclear powered spacecraft. But unlike the apollo missions this time the LEM would not be discarded in lunar orbit, and would be carried back to earth. To get back to the earth the two stage spaceplane would take the first crew back when a second crew is launched. Cargo would be launched by heavy lift rockets, then taken to the moon using a spacecraft that would use solar powered VASIMR engines.

We made a mistake. That is the simple, undeniable truth of the matter, however painful it might be. The flaw was not in our Observatories, for those machines were as perfect as we could make, and they showed us only the unfiltered light of truth. The flaw was not in the Predictor, for it is a device of pure, infallible logic, turning raw data into meaningful information without the taint of emotion or bias. No, the flaw was within us, the Orchestrators of this disaster, the sentients who thought themselves beyond such failings. We are responsible.

It began a short while ago, as these things are measured, less than 6^6 Deeli ago, though I suspect our systems of measure will mean very little by the time anyone receives this transmission. We detected faint radio signals from a blossoming intelligence 2^14 Deelis outward from the Galactic Core, as photons travel. At first crude and unstructured, these leaking broadcasts quickly grew in complexity and strength, as did the messages they carried. Through our Observatories we watched a world of strife and violence, populated by a barbaric race of short-lived, fast breeding vermin. They were brutal and uncultured things which stabbed and shot and burned each other with no regard for life or purpose. Even their concepts of Art spoke of conflict and pain. They divided themselves according to some bizarre cultural patterns and set their every industry to cause of death.
