Cost comparison... Hmmm.... (Score 2, Interesting)

The X15 project was said to have cost an estimated $300 Million in 1969 dollars... Rutan and Scaled have done the same thing for probably a LOT less than that... at least 20 million (of Allen's money) for sure, but thats still a long way off from the corrected '69 price. Chalk one up for advances in technology and private efficiency!
