That said, the idea that style doesn't play into peoples desicions with reaguard to personal spaceflight is naive. Yes, it shouldn't play any factor, but it does - now how much it place is open for deabate. <b> In anycase, beyond the fact that it will be a hybrid rocket, and large, do we have any further data on the rocket itself?</b> I disagree, I think it is pretty.

In anycase, beyond the fact that it will be a hybrid rocket, and large, do we have any further data on the rocket itself?

That things pretty ugly. I think I'd rather fly in a capsule but like the man said... "so long as it works" Beam me up Scotty... Is it just me or is THAT the ship in "Superman Returns" TV spot??? Even the cockpit looks like it and not SS2 especially with that well known actor wearing a cheesy (thanks hollywood!) spacesuit and looking like a retard. I might be able to afford a suborbital ride and maybe if I penny pinch for the next 15 years an orbital ride... but when we start going to the moon I think I'll save some money, get a half price discount and just get a one way ticket!

Beam me up Scotty…
