More proof that PRIVATE ENTERPRISE IS THE WAY TO GO FOR SPACE EXPLORATION!

Call me back when they go a little higher than 100 km.

Actually, SpaceShipOne flew about 122km or or almost 70 miles with about 3 minutes of weighlessness. Branson wants to give tourists who fly about 7 minutes of weightlessness. Let's hope he succeeds!
