    Following up that flight, they're [url=http://www.scaled.com/projects/tierone/New_Index/news/062104.htm]planning their shot at space[/url]. Not an X-Prize attempt just yet, though.

    Makes me think of space flights for general public. Though will obviously be all the millionaires first!

    More like the multi-hundred-thousand-dollar-aires. They want to charge around a hundred thousand dollars or so for a flight. Pretty cheap, really.

    Anyone thinking of going? It would definately be one to tell the grandkids.

    Actually, I was seriously considering it until I found out I have an exam on the 24th. I wouldn't be able to get back in time.

    Hmm... I hadn't even thought about attending. Maybe I should.
