I am here for Serious Relationships, Friends and Networking

About Me

My name is Andy and I love science, the idea of space exploration and I really wish Richard Branson would get off his ass and make commercial space flight a reality. I seriously can't wait to strap myself onto a few tons of rocket fuel, blast off this rock called Earth and into the great void of space; then maybe just tool around the solar system for a while (I hear Venus is quite lovely this time of year). Until then, however, I live this dream of mine vicariously through such awesome shows and movies as the ones listed to your left. If you share these interests, drop me a line, send me an add, or post a comment.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Fellow science fiction fans, space junkies, science afficianados, Trekkies, StarGaters, computer geeks, and stargazers
