I think it would be pretty neat to call it 'Starfleet', and I'm not even a huge trek fan.

They need to call it the "United Earth Space Probe Agency" first. THEN change the name to "Starfleet". ;)

Private commercial space flight is going to be a reality in this century...I think we can all agree on that.

The Ansari prize has been won...the race is on.
