That is pretty awesome.

SO we have how many private sector companies building and preparing to reach orbit?

That shuttle from that Sierra Nevada whatever was absolutely cool

About 5 I think.

This particular technology is amazing — like something form an 1950s Sci-Fi flicks. I am curious about how much fuel they will need to carry into orbit in order to come back down safely. Seems like a lot of weight.
