The final frontier

It doesn't have anything to do with going to Thailand, but hey it's my blog, I can and will write about anything I want to. :)

And I think this is just so very cool, monday SpaceShipOne will (try to) make the first manned private spaceflight!


I wish them luck.

Boing Boing has daily updates as they get ready for launch, so check it out.

Yep... space tourism has finaly started.
I will be rooting for John Carmack however,
at Armadillo aerospace.
Also, I met the very first space tourist:
Mark Shuttleworth! (during EuroPython2004 in Goetheborg.

You like Carmack because he created Doom and Quake.. ;)

I think if SpaceShipOne can make this monday a succes, they will go on to claim the X-Prize, but I hope Armadillo will continue to work on their launch vehicle, choice is always a good thing.
