Mojave, California, April 18, 2003:
Scaled Composites today unveiled the existence of a commercial manned space
program. This previously hidden, active research program has been in the
works at its facility for two years. This program includes an airborne
launcher (the White Knight), a space ship (SpaceShipOne), rocket propulsion,
avionics, simulator and ground support elements.
Master of Ceremonies, Cliff Robertson, introduced Burt Rutan who explained
the history and the components of the program. Other dignitaries who
attended the event were Dr. Maxim Faget (pioneer configuration designer of
the early NASA space program from the Mercury through the Apollo programs),
Erik Lindbergh (grandson of Charles Lindbergh and President of the Lindbergh
Foundation), and Dennis Tito (Soyuz space tourist).
Further information about the space program and high-resolution photographs
are available at the Scaled Composites website: www.scaled.com.
