Default Re: SpaceShipOne made it!

The pilot is 62 years old. Don't know if he said it was better than sex but he did say it was a religious experience. People say you never want to get behind an old man with a hat while driving, but at Mach 3.2 this old man burns rubber. Literally that's what the rocket motor burns. Rubber and liquid nitrous oxide.


Nasa surveillance telescopes did show the pilot left his turn signal on for the past 100 miles.
