A few days old, but very cool. Does anyone else think SpaceShipOne looks like R2D2?

Actually, it's a rather old pic, i've seen it months before, even used it as a wallpaper for a while... but it wwas oriented 90° different...
Still, it's a very beautiful picture...
And their last test-flight was remarkable too, mach 2... 1/3 the way (height) to go...
BTW, check ArmadilloAerospace's web-site, there's a movie online with their first 'pre-hover-test' of the sub-scale vehicle, and it's great! Next week they'll do a more elaborate test... Be sure to read the story first, to get an idea about the progress...
