Inspired by "The Science of Star Wars"

Tonight on the Discovery Channel Roo and I watched an episode from the series The Science of Star Wars titled Space Cowboys. It featured inventions by real life Han Solo wannabees, complete with hovercraft vehicles, personal flight space packs, and electromagnetic vehicles. As he often does after seeing something on television (ice hockey, croc hunters, storm chasers), Roo imitated and went to work constructing his own craft. When I mistakenly called it an aircraft, he clarified that it is for on the water and that he would be doing a test run in the tub tonight to see if it floats. Success, it floated!
