They could of been a little more creative with the name. The Pilot was quoted as saying "It was the best experience other than being with a woman"... I call being with a woman the XXX prize!

all depends on wich woman...

Being with a woman can costs a lot less than a "Space Ship One Flying Ticket" so I think it's an obvious as unlikely slogan

Interesing that Microsoft's Steve Ballmer put up the majority of the funding ($20-$30 million).

Also interesting that SpaceShipOne broke the the record set by an X-15 in 1963 for peak altitude...
