Billionaire Paul Allen's private spaceflight company Stratolaunch has just
unveiled the world's biggest airplane: a massive carrier plane with a wingspan
longer than an entire football field.


A beautiful beast. She should dramatically reduce the cost of putting
many payloads into orbit.

I would love to see her fly. I remember when I saw my first low
flying B-36, it looked like an aluminum cloud. This aircraft's
wingspan will dwarf the B-36.
