I haven't had a chance to catch any of the info on the first private space launch. How did that thing go?

It set a height record for private flight. It did make it to the edge of space. There were a couple of glitches that happened during the flight, something like the craft rolled 90 degrees one way, then 90 degrees the other way. Otherwise, it was supposedly an uneventful flight. I'll try to find the link to the news article that I was just reading, again. It was on news.google.com

" To the edge of space " so it didn't really go into space? Did it have to re-enter the atmosphere?

I don't know. That was how the article put it, because I thought it was an odd way of saying it. Here's the link to the article that i read. http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tm...ceshipencountersglitchesinrecordsettingflight
