Cape Breton to Vancouver in 45 Minutes!

I just caught this in the Globe & Mail, quite interesting. Hopefully Expedia or Travelocity will have cheaper prices than $250K

Very cool Shane. I wasn't really aware of the ethonol situation either.

I think we're safe the alterate travel providers are going to be a bit more reasonable.

LOL, Bill......no likely!!! only "breast milk"........


The Silver Dart weighs 6,300 kilograms, is 15 metres long, and carries up to eight passengers and some cargo. It's powered by 28 rockets. Initially, the program will see space tourists taken on a sub-orbital ride that would last only 15-minutes, and cost each passenger roughly $250,000.
Good find Shane. -- a little pricey, sounds like a 'blast' --- tho you'd definitely want to make sure it's a 'business' trip ......

So the first humans that aliens will meet will be a Cape Bretoner. I think they’ll leave the planet alone.
