So I though about how I'm going to celebrate USA's return to manned spaceflight.

I'm going skydiving this weekend. Thought I'd see if anyone here would be interested in going- the company has group jumps.

Pretty sure they didn't exist back then.

Falling with a 'chute is a little less terrifying than just freefalling.

You're still freefalling. Maybe paragliding someday.

[darkforcerising]

How is a paraglider different from a parachute?

[bearshermark]

I get the impression there's way less freefalling involved.

Okay ya, that's fair, if you're worried about the descent aspect of either sport.
