The original choice of registry number, N100KM, was already taken. N328KF is registered as a glider, reflecting the fact that most of its independent flight is unpowered.
Space Ship One 2004/6/21
Flight 15P on June 21, 2004, was SpaceShipOne's first spaceflight, and the first privately funded human spaceflight. Ansari X PRIZE flights followed, with flight 17P on October 4, 2004, winning the prize.

"SpaceShipOne was developed by Mojave Aerospace Ventures (A joint venture between Paul Allen and Scaled Composites, Burt Rutan's aviation company, in their Tier One program), without government funding. On June 21, 2004, it made the first privately funded human spaceflight, and on October 4, it won the $10 million Ansari X PRIZE, by reaching 100 kilometers in altitude twice in a two-week period with the equivalent of three people on board, with no more than ten percent of the non-fuel weight of the spacecraft replaced between flights. Development costs were estimated to be $25 million, funded completely by Paul Allen."

"Explosion: On 26 July, 2007 a fatal explosion occurred at the Mojave airport during a fuel flow test that included filling the oxidizer tank with 4,500 kg (10,000 pounds) of nitrous oxide followed by a 15 second cold flow injector test.
Though the tests did not ignite the gas, three employees were killed.
The SpaceShipTwo craft will take off from the Mojave Spaceport in California during testing.
Spaceport America (formerly Southwest Regional Spaceport), a $200 million spaceport in New Mexico partly funded by the state government, will become the permanent launch site when commercial launches begin."

"SpaceShipOne was developed by Mojave Aerospace Ventures (A joint venture between Paul Allen and Scaled Composites, Burt Rutan's aviation company, in their Tier One program), without government funding. On June 21, 2004, it made the first privately funded human spaceflight, and on October 4, it won the $10 million Ansari X PRIZE, by reaching 100 kilometers in altitude twice in a two-week period with the equivalent of three people on board, with no more than ten percent of the non-fuel weight of the spacecraft replaced between flights. Development costs were estimated to be $25 million, funded completely by Paul Allen."

"Explosion: On 26 July, 2007 a fatal explosion occurred at the Mojave airport during a fuel flow test that included filling the oxidizer tank with 4,500 kg (10,000 pounds) of nitrous oxide followed by a 15 second cold flow injector test.
Though the tests did not ignite the gas, three employees were killed.
The SpaceShipTwo craft will take off from the Mojave Spaceport in California during testing.

Apolloが大成功だったので
月は近く見えた
Viking も大成功だったので
火星も近く見えた
Voyagerも大成功だったので
太陽系の果ても 実際に到達できる距離に思えた
2004年 Shuttleが飛ばせない間
Space Ship Oneが大成功だったので
民間でも宇宙に行けるかも と勘違いした
思えば、あれは奇跡の連続だったのだ、と気づく
21世紀 慢性予算不足で
人類にとって太陽系ですら ますます広くなり
無人機をもってしても、到達不能な空域だらけになる無念
"Dawn Re-Lights the Ionic Fire 06.08.09
Dawn's three ion engines will accumulate 2,000 days of operation.
Mission controllers at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., have received a transmission from the Dawn spacecraft confirming it has re-ignited its ion propulsion system. Dawn is currently 299 million kilometers (185.6 million miles) from Earth.
At that distance, it takes almost 17 minutes for a transmission from the spacecraft to arrive on Earth. "Dawn Mission Home Page

"The Theodore von Karman Lecture Series is named in honor of JPL's founder.
Feb. 22 & 23, 2007
Topic: Dawn Mission to the Asteroid Belt
NASA's next venture into the solar system is the Dawn mission, planned for launch in October 2007.
Dr. Marc D. Rayman
Project System Engineer for the Dawn Mission (JPL)
ion propulsion system力説されても、興味のない人は
Dawn Mission自体 知らないし
打ち上げ時に興味持った一般人も 忘れちゃってるって(^_^;)
搭載機器は実際に壊れずに(笑)動作するのかと思うほど すごい
"The Dawn spacecraft contains three instruments (GRaND, Visible Infrared Spectrometer, and the Framing Camera) that will provide new answers to questions about the formation and evolution of the early solar system."

NASAにしても ベビーブーマー世代の科学者の総引退後には、
もう予算獲得のモーチベーションが、？？？
なんか 人類の "種"としての限界だったのでは
と思ったりした次第。
SF全盛期の作家とか、映画のStar Wars、Star Trekにしろ、
もう現実には単なるファンタジーだし
ひたすら首を長くして待つ・・・

The 5-year-old space age - msnbc.com
"The 5-year-old space age I'm talking about dates back to June 21, 2004, when the SpaceShipOne rocket plane became the first privately developed craft to carry a civilian astronaut into outer space."
http://cosmiclog.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2009/06/19/1971623.aspx
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spaceship_One
SpaceShipOne now hangs in the National Air and Space Museum in Washington D.C.
'N' is the prefix for US-registered aircraft;
'328KF' stand for 328 kilo feet (about 100 kilometers),
The original choice of registry number, N100KM, was already taken. N328KF is registered as a glider, reflecting the fact that most of its independent flight is unpowered.
Space Ship One 2004/6/21
Flight 15P on June 21, 2004, was SpaceShipOne's first spaceflight, and the first privately funded human spaceflight. Ansari X PRIZE flights followed, with flight 17P on October 4, 2004, winning the prize.

Scaled Composites SpaceShipOne - Wikipedia
"SpaceShipOne was developed by Mojave Aerospace Ventures (A joint venture between Paul Allen and Scaled Composites, Burt Rutan's aviation company, in their Tier One program), without government funding. On June 21, 2004, it made the first privately funded human spaceflight, and on October 4, it won the $10 million Ansari X PRIZE, by reaching 100 kilometers in altitude twice in a two-week period with the equivalent of three people on board, with no more than ten percent of the non-fuel weight of the spacecraft replaced between flights. Development costs were estimated to be $25 million, funded completely by Paul Allen."

不幸な事故・・・
SpaceShipTwo - Wikipedia
"Explosion: On 26 July, 2007 a fatal explosion occurred at the Mojave airport during a fuel flow test that included filling the oxidizer tank with 4,500 kg (10,000 pounds) of nitrous oxide followed by a 15 second cold flow injector test.
Though the tests did not ignite the gas, three employees were killed.
The SpaceShipTwo craft will take off from the Mojave Spaceport in California during testing.
Spaceport America (formerly Southwest Regional Spaceport), a $200 million spaceport in New Mexico partly funded by the state government, will become the permanent launch site when commercial launches begin."

Spaceport America - Wikipedia
"(formerly named Southwest Regional Spaceport) is a commercial spaceport currently being developed on 27 square miles (70 km2) of state-owned desert near Upham, New Mexico.
The site is 45 miles (72 km) north of Las Cruces, and 30 miles (48 km) east of Truth or Consequences, near the perimeter of the White Sands Missile Range."
