I watched it with my girlfriend at lunch. She could barely handle it on the cell phone.

I've been pretty interested in this for a while. I'm a chemistry major who wants to work with rocket and jet propulsion. To me this is the beginning of privatized space travel. Kittinger was the first step for NASA in the 60s. Less than a decade later, we were on the moon.

I think regular space flights for private citizens ins't too far off in the future. I think private travel to the moon will happen in our lifetime.
