To me this was more momentous than the original Mercury flights and
the whole project probably cost less than one of those capsules.

I don't know about more, but it ranks up there.

The flight of SpaceShipOne is the opening of the door to space flight
for industry and the world in a way that could never be approached by
the governments of the world.

To me, it also saids that America still got it. We are still the
inovators. Not just a military bully. It sends a very positive
message.

To me it now makes going to the other planets much more of a
possibility but how long before "Protect the Planets" groups emerge?

I'm gonna form one right now! Just kidding.


I say it's a fantastic job well done!

A big A+.
