This is obviously a great situation for innovation, not only here in America, but also in the world.. here's why the SS1 program will go farther faster than NASA.
NASA's governmentally funded and based.. they take all of their orders from the government. This is free enterprise at work here.
If it took this program less than 5 years to get to the point where it's at now.. imagine where we could be in 5 more years?
Trips to the moon, anyone?
Wonder who's going to be the first to start researching ways to create artificial atmospheric conditions on the moon. Will there be an X-Prize for that?
