I’d send up the canister filled with a hair or nail clipping from 10,000 people paying $100 each for the vanity of having flown in space. Well, “part of them” at least. Then I would use the profits to make micro loans to people who wish to start small businesses in poor countries. (And I’d buy plane tickets for Bob Z and Salena Z to NYC to do the John Batchelor Show in studio.)
