They need 62 miles altitude, right? They've gone about a third of the way there, so that's very good progress.

I didn't realize it was 300,000 plus feet for a goal.
Thanks

Surprised at how fast Rutan was at giving the go-ahead for another flight after they obtained the FAA license, the prize will probably be won in less than 3 months. I heard the New Mexico legislature has approved 9 million for a 2nd Xprize, onward and upward........

Cory Johnson of CNBC reported that the ship reached 341,000 feet which qualified officially as a suborbital space flight.
