A titanium billet the size of one of those really thick sci-fi paperbacks weighs about 5 pounds to put things in perspective. Maybe everyone will have to machine their wheels out of titanium billets this year?

Re: KOP Speculation

This is nothing near the 5 lb weight of the small objects, but wouldn't the cRIO modules fit the description of "smaller than a paperback book"? Could we be expanding beyond the current system of 3 types of modules?
