IT’S ON, BABY!

That Buck Rogers Stuff

X-Prize update for Scaled Composites and SpaceShipOne: Flight 1: Success. Big time.

[wik] Well… not “big time,” quite. There was some roll that was a little scary but that the pilot was able to deal with. I’m just happy that there’s a space vehicle out there that can develop a little roll and not explode, killing everyone inside and giving their constituent molecules a tour of the upper atmosphere from Butte to Bangor. That right there is a major improvement over the “best” the gubmint has done so far.
