Witnessing History
Yesterday Erin Clerico and I dragged ourselves out of our nice warm beds and drove to Mojave at 3:30am to see the Launch of SpaceShipOne. This was the First in a series of 2 Space flights needed to collect the Ansari X Prize. After getting over the shock of getting out of bed so early, Erin and I had a really good time. The crowd was large but pleasant and the whole event had an upbeat atmosphere that was hard not to get into.
Video of the launch is available here
