Have you ever thought of living in a bomb-proof space station? No, right? I mean, I don’t want to judge anyone, but I don’t think the majority of us ever dreamed in owning a nuclear bomb-proof space station.
Jamesburg Earth Station received the first images from the moon in 1969 and it can be bought today for $2.95M. Isn’t it hard to believe? According to Curbed, the “Cold War-era building was designed to withstand a five-megaton nuclear blast, plus it can transmit data worldwide, provided the buyer has a satellite already in orbit. For more terrestrial uses, the complex consists of 103 acres, the 11-story dish itself, the adjacent bomb-proof building, a good old-fashioned barn, a helicopter landing pad, a three-bedroom house, and even a basketball court.”
I ask… Can anyone buy something like that?
Now, you take a good look at this place and tell me if you think it’s Cool or Fool to own a bomb-proof space station. Believe me, I never thought I’d ask you this!
She’s a Beauty. Or is she?
Can you imagine if you start dating a person and he/she invites you over for the first time and you see THIS as you enter the “property”? Would you do get in? 🙂

Out of Place
A red barn? Are you kidding me? Why would these people build a barn? Really odd.
