a small company, involved in a non-government effort

That's right, no gov't funds. No gov't interference aside from the usual permits. How many here on FR own shares in this enterprise?

RightWhale does.

Look guys I'm glad that this has happened, however 1) its NOT the first time it has been done as someone else has pointed out, and 2) starting out with the problem already solved by government research before you ever get started definately makes your task of replicating it simpler!

This is hardly an example of private industry "CREATING" new technology.... who do you think had a harder time, the Write Brothers or the guys who built aircraft 10 years later? You cannot dismiss that technology largely advances on top of previous discoveries and advances. I am not trying to deminish this accomplishment, but if there weren't already many supersonic aircraft flying these guys would still be working out the kinks... they can like all developments piggyback on those that came before... you can't claim this thing happened in a Vaccuum... it didn't.

I got to visit Scaled for work last week. I got to walk around and touch Spacship 1 and White Knight--play with the flight sim too. They are all great guys out there: Total Professionals.

Is it too late to jump on the bandwagon?
How much do shares cost, and where can they be had?
