>well total success apparently on x prize flight,,,, whats to come now?
and SpaceDev is going to build their own 7-passenger version. So one thing
that is sure to come next is companies offering sub-orbital tourist flights,
for passengers and for whatever cargo or research packet market there is for
sub-orbital trajectories.
But I understand that SpaceShip One has zero chance of actually reaching
orbit, no matter how you modify it. So there will be a lot of
Back-to-the-Drawing-Board as folks ramp up for Bigelow's $50 million orbital
challenge. I propose this should be called the Y Prize. Remember, you
heard it here first.
