Spaceship One soars to 200,000 feet |
2004-05-14 |
This is why the rest of the world fears and envies America. Where else could a private company make a plane that can fly almost 40 miles (soon to be 62 miles) high, bring the pilot back safely and do it again a few days later? Rutan is a remarkable man. More on his Spaceship One project at his website www.scaled.com. Can you imagine turbans in space or even euros in space? Fred, I couldn’t get the source box to accept this url. Link |

#8 Is it true that a young man named Ephram Cochran is working at his first job with this company? Just curious. |

#6 I think we should give Mr Rutan and friends the NASA budget. He seems to have the replace for the shuttle in development. |
