I’ll never forget that after the science correspondent from Fox News finished his bit of commentary after the takeoff, he looked genuinely surprised to learn that the space plane would be returning shortly to land on the same runway. This, despite the fact that the press pass hanging around his neck included a helpful colorful graphic clearly illustrating the takeoff, separation, space flight, reentry and landing sequence.

This is so totally surprising to me! /s

Seriously though, I kind of want to go to space. I wonder if a round trip w/ a few days on a space station will approach $100K in the next 10-20 years.
