  • This is how to get in space, Instead of using the shuttle or the old 3 stage rocket system

  • Base is Mojave Space Port, CA :)

  • I saw straight after watching a program on the SpaceShipOne.

  • @applesweeter Because its there!

  • @NearSpace04 Soon in NM after a space port is done i think

  • @dude58677 Ah right, plus I guess it doesn't have to go through as many layers of atmos' as the shuttle, no?

  • @mellodge

    The wings on the back of the plane flip up which causes drag and slows down the aircraft and of course there is little if any heat at reentry. This is what Rutan calls "feathered configuration".

    Also because of the pressurized cabin, spacesuits are also not needed.

  • @cappermeh back to your old tricks talking shit claiming every body is, such a ass hole but you know that, to bad you havent been ended
