uh, it's doing the exact same thing as an airplane. this looks like a silly marketing scheme to me.. it is basically designed to make people think something amazing is happening. I believe it will eventually happen, but this is not it.. yet. this is some really really silly stuff

@alexoc949 I know - compared to Star trek, this is nothing, right? What I'm getting at is the separation of fantasy & reality which makes this so mundane by comparison. Please remember, this wasn't conceived by an art director & CGI. This is the real thing & these early test flights alone a major accomplishment that we would be better not being so critical of. We seen what Burt Rutan is capable of. He got to space once, he'll do it again & in this vehicle. I think this is amazing!
