Virgin Galactic’s Open Source Spaceship
What a great concept! Richard Branson’s Virgin Galactic is launching a spaceship project where they’ll apply to space flight the principles from Open Source software development - ie shared development by community without the encumbrances of profitable ownership. Profit works best for some things, but in a space as innovative as space this is probably the best approach to get the job done faster. Space Kudos to Branson!
