That’s Rutan, not Rhutan. His brother Dick holds a few flight records, too.

good luck with this venture!! even though such flight falls far short of real ride into orbit, it is a step in a right direction with manned flights going beyond 40000 feet.
let us see more private spacecraft take flight!!

I believe the goal is to carry Two Starships under the Mothership,
if the renderings are any indication.

Now you have to wonder, if these guys can build something sub-orbital
why didn’t NASA with all their wasted billions, they could have easily
duplicated some carbon-fiber wonder (years ago) and financed their
way to Mars!

The price should come down to about $1,800.00 in 2017 – most would
still have to take out a small loan to do that! Just kidding, everybody has
money to burn these days ….

Go Burt/Branson Galactic!! (david essex in background)
