SpaceShipOne has successfully completed the first of two qualifying flights into space! There was no report of any passengers, so I presume it carried ballast instead. In order to win the $10 million prize, it must make a second successful trip within the next 14 days.

The SpaceShipOne team does not have a lot of wiggle room. A Canadian team is scheduled to try on October 2nd.
