   Is there anywhere I can go to actually see NASA's (or CSA or ESA)'s "Lessons Learned"? I'd love to track how they've evolved different characteristics of spaceflight/rovers. to improve my KSP game, obvious

    low... a good rough base for freelancing should be triple whatever the salaried hourly rate equivalent would be (i.e. $80k/year => $40/hr, so you should be charging $120). I do give a break if I'm charging in bulk (i.e. I

    The BTC support we offer is through a 3rd party merchant gateway. As a shop-owner, you are simply accepting payments via BitPay (our partner) which converts the BTC into a currency you find acceptable and deposits it into your accounts.

    I've wanted this for a while, but I'm betting licensing is going to get messy there. I'd be happy with just a "watch random shows from this tv category".
