RUTAN SCORES
I got into Beijing last night just in time to follow Space Ship One's historic flight in real time. It looks like there was some kind of "control system" hiccup during the boost phase that cut a few tens of thousands of feet off the ultimate altitude, but the pilot still got his astronaut wings.
Mark my words, history will look back on this as a very important event.
