The Planet Strappers
THE PLANET STRAPPERS started out as The Bunch, a group of student-astronauts in the back room of a store in Jarviston, Minnesota. They wanted off Earth, and they begged, borrowed and built what they needed to make it. THE PLANET STRAPPERS got what they wanted – a start on the road to the stars – but no one brought up on Earth could have imagined what was waiting for them Out There!
