Default Is Virgin Galactic for Real?


Should Richard Branson be taken seriously? It takes giant rocket
boosters to get the space shuttle into space. So he's going to put his
shuttle ontop of jet and launch it from there? And New Mexico is going to
build a spaceport?

What's this going to cost? How long will they be in orbit? And would
you pay that fee to go just a few thousand miles into space?

How about this: What will happen first? Virgin Galactic taking
customers into space or the U.S. returning to the Moon?

Oh, and of course their first craft (whenever they finish it) will be
called Enterprise. Ugh, give me a break.
