Into The Mainstream
You know that space tourism is being taken seriously when you can read about it in Travel and Leisure magazine. This piece by Los Angeles writer M. G. Lord was in the January issue, which Patricia just pointed out to me.
I last saw M. G. last June in Mojave for the first SpaceShipOne flight into space. I hadn't realized that she has a new book out. It looks quite interesting. Check out the review by NASA historian Roger Launius.

Rand, I found it interesting that she chose to sleep overnight in the XCOR offices rather than in her nice comfortable hotel room; she was fascinated by the general air of joyous euphoria we were all sharing. She said to me she found it unusual, but delightfully so. I'm sorry her experiences at JPL weren't so happy.

I'm sure that she figured that the story was in the hangar, not in her motel room.

Has SS1 flown again since winning the X-Prize?
