THE FUTURE IS NOW!

The realism of the "real-robot" genre that Tomino started is soon to be... well, realized. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/asia/article5058011.ece This article talks about the new "Gundam Academy" in which members will be pursuing the actualization of most, if not all of the elements of Gundam(except the Minovski particle based technology, obviously). This is a landmark event not only for Gundam, but for humanity.

There is hope for space colonization after all. I now have faith in humanity again!!!
