Dr. Jones, I kind of missed the original post on this subject and would like to see that initial proposition so as to catch up to speed with what you're saying. I don't know what diagrams you would have us draw. Off-hand I can't understand how a launch is done in any direction other than straight up. Perhaps the rocket changes course once launched? I believe one of the BA-er's went into some detail on this once, explaining to me how the rocket goes so high and then turns eastwardly to take advantage of rotation ... but my memory is hazy beyond that. Can you copy or possibly just point me (can one give a link to a Freelist post?) to the right spot, please. Thank you.
