Yeah. I've always been a big Virgin Galactic skeptic. It seemed like a sort of a stunt from the beginning. "Dangerous joyrides which briefly reach the edge of space" might appeal to some people, but is otherwise a spectacularly useless and ridiculously expensive activity. It mainly seems to be a sort of playground for (originally) Bert Rutan to inadvertently prove that his ideas about planes and low-tech systems don't really translate to this sort of application. Nice work if you can get it, maybe. Thank you for attending my TED rant.
