Hum,
it looks like 62-year-old Scaled Composites vice-president Mike Melvill, a professional test pilot from South Africa with U.S. citizenship, will rocket into the record books to become the first civilian to fly a spaceship out of Earth's atmosphere.   


You can watch it via MSNBC live webcast at 9:30AM EDT.

Yes!
SpaceShipOne has completed its historic flight and has safely landed.
 SpaceShipOne reached its projected altitude of 100 kilometers,  even though its engine cut off early.

 This is the first private manned space flight.

 This is history in the making...Onwards to the stars!





[sry, for giving the ending away]
