These cool DIY dudes in Denmark got together and said to themselves, collectively, "Why don't we build a Submarine?". So they did, as you see above. A cute little one! But big enough...

Suborbitals. This is a very promising, though profound, movement. I mean, really, a DIY gang putting a man into Space? It's crazy! And awesome. Their launch failed on their first attempt last year, but they gave it another go recently, and success! Unmanned first launch:

Homemade missiles and homemade subs are two things I would not want to be a test pilot for. Pretty amazing that they're pulling these things off, though.
