    Yeah, we should start a "Send Carson Back to Outerspace" fund. :wink:

    I dunno, I'm kinda meh about the whole thing. This is a LONG way from a useful space vehicle.

    Very cool. I really like the involvement I've seen from private enterprise that seems to have been spurred by the X Prize competition.

    Its a long way ... true ... but its still freakin awesome that they did this without government backing. Granted it was Paul Allen funding alot of this ;)
