An important day

Burt Rutan, founder of Scaled Composites and designer of many a cool aircraft, has made the first test flight of the SpaceShipOne, their entry into the X-Prize Contest. Apparently, they are shooting for a suborbital flight by Dec 17, the centenary of the Wright Brother's first powered flight. That would be very, very cool.
