They look almost as good as the images shot from the Space Shuttle! Neat!

"NASA wants to know how he has done it". Ehem...ever since NASA only cares about money and nothing else, that's the very reason they have failed. Real exploration is driven by curiosity and thirst for knowledge, not money. Real inventors always came from simple people who actually wanted to discover things, beside trying pocket away millions of dollars.

Um ... try paying back your school loans, maintaining at least an apartment, transportation and oh yeah, that trifling little need to eat something while you're doing your research.

NASA needs money. Sorry.
