The glider looks like those plastic bottle rockets I had as a kid, you know, where you fill the rocket with water then use a pump to fill it with air causing it to launch.

I find it immensely gratifying that the first commercial passenger spaceship looks almost exactly the way commercial passenger spaceships were expected to look back in the 1940s and 1950s: a cigar shape with portholes and wings. That's the way a spaceship is
supposed to look.
