The Virgin Galactic SpaceShipTwo launched yesterday to more than 80 kilometers altitude, which by some measures put it into space. Of course, which in *space* it was nowhere near being in *orbit,* but it’s a step towards getting the SpaceShip suborbital tourist craft into operation. It should be noted that SpaceShipOne achieved this sort of performance *fourteen* *years* *ago.*
