   I thought that the article “To The Moon… And Beyond” was just completly awsome. It was really cool to read something written by an actual astronaut! I also liked “How We’ll Live On Mars”. Dr. Emmart had awsome illustrations!

   I like how the issue is designed. Everything is neat and well thought out. Everyone knows you cant buy this magazine on newsstands, but its cheap and easy to subscribe. If any of your friends have this magazine, I bet you they will say this magazine is awesome! Boys Life also picked a really neat cover story this month:

   TO THE MOON…. AND BEYOND

   Where, pray tell, is the article about building rubber-band cars? I went to “IPG”(learn to make amazing rubber band cars with new book)and can find alot about nothing. Thank you for your help. This looks like al ot of fun, but I am lost.
