[FPSPACE] Behind the X Prize

[LARRY KLAES]

Behind the X Prize

We know who won: top-runner SpaceShipOne. We know what the team
receives for that accomplishment: $10 million and an obscenely
gigantic trophy. But what about the story behind the contest?
Learn about the rules, restrictions, red tape, test crashes,
successful launches and the technological innovations that may
get you into sub-orbit sooner than you think.
