I was reading an article, the link for which was sent to me by a friend as something that might pique my interest. It's about the History of Rocketmail i.e. sending letters or postcards by rockets to make otherwise long and delayed journeys very short.
Are we about to enter a renaissance of Rocketmail? As SpaceX or other similar companies consider sub/low orbital flights between countries to ferry passengers quickly, will the post also follow suit? Is this something particularly well suited for smaller vehicles such as those produced by New Zealand's Rocket Lab?
I for one look forward to an era of super-fast international postal services.
