Way to go, Scaled Composites Corp. and Spaceship One!

Bert Rutan's suborbital space vehicle successfuly attained an altitude of over 360,000 feet and has now landed at Mojave Spaceport! Hurray!!!!!

*breaks out Zen bottles of champagne and hands out glasses all around!*

The pilot today was Brian Benney, now the second private astronaut to fly in space. :)

Click, if you are interested in a Civilian Space Program.

Mark and I watched the coverage of this on the Discovery Science Channel. The news reporting/interviewing was done by a rather charming British lady named Laura Greene. I liked her a lot.
