Synopsis

This page shows an image of SpaceShipOne, designed to be the first non-government funded craft to reach the edge of space at just over one hundred kilometres. It was launched from a purpose-built aircraft, White Knight. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the right way up. At the top centre of the page is the nose cone of the craft with many small round windows shown in a heavy texture. Down the page is the body of the plane and down again is the nozzle of the engine and the hot gases being expelled towards the bottom of the page. To the left and right of the body are the two wings. They are hinged so that their configuration can be changed for the climbing, gliding, and re-entry stages of flight.
