XPRIZE - Official SpaceShipOne Launch tomorrow @ 6am PST
« on: September 28, 2004, 11:05:00 am »
Hey

Tomorrow Septmeber 29, 2004 @ 6am.  You can watch the webcast of the Space Ship One's attempt to claim the XPrize.

http://www.xprize.org/

Then on October 2, 2004, a Canadian team called, The Golden Palace.com Space Program, does it's official launch to claim the X-Prize.

Both team must fly into space, land and then they must be able to fly back into space and land agian within 2 weeks to win the XPrize.

So SpaceShipOne will have until Oct 13 to relaunch again and The Golden Palace.com Space Program will have until Oct 15 to relauch again.
