The "expert consultant" on the tube and radio keeps saying that this is the
first private rocket. Never heard of Goddard or Evil Kneivel? Or even the
rocket club when i was a kid. We made some mighty dangerous flying bombs.
Also that they reached "orbital altitudes" making the next step orbiting and
flying to the space station or Moon. Uhm, yeah. It only has to go six times
faster without burning up.
