the billion dollar man called virgins newest spaceshuttl "sexy" but it looks like a mouse with wings and is called spaceshiptwo. even 'the spacerat' wouldv been better.
stil -its probably gona be the first commercial spacecraft of its kind taking anyone with enough dough for a crazy ride. by 2011 if youve got a spare 200 gs (american ?) you can catch a ride into space. the pasengronaughts of the first ride will be branson and his family. after testing has been completed.
the numbers: 2.5 hour round trip time, 5 mins weightlessnes reaches 105ks up, fly with 5 other passengers and 2 pilots
you dont hav to take a rocket up, the ship gets launched from the air by the whiteknighttwo. so its a reasonably normal flight up til 50000 feet then buckle your seatbelt dorothy coz kansas is goin byebye |
