go for launch

go for launch

As expected, Burt Rutan announced the date of Scaled Composites official X-prize attempt: the first of at least two flights will occur on September 29, 2004; the second must be completed by October 13, 2004, in the same vehicle.

At the same news conference, Brian Feeney announced the rollout of the Wildfire rocket will be in Toronto on August 5, 2004, and that the da Vinci group will be making its X-prize attempts this fall. Too bad he wasn't more specific with a date.
