It's a lot bigger job getting to orbit. I wonder if any of the ideas Burt used in winning the X-prize will be useful in attaining and returning from orbit. Aside from the piggyback ride to launch I mean.

Burt alluded to his space vision in the Discovery Channel broadcast "Black Sky". SpaceShipOne is a Tier One project. Tier Two is orbital capability and Tier Three is ... the moon and beyond. Who knows what secrets lurk in the hearts and minds of man?

Oops that the Shadow!!!

If he gathers mavericks, in his mold, then "The Sky's not the Limit"!
