BBC NEWS | Science/Nature | Private craft makes space history
SpaceShipOne has rocketed into the history books to become the first private manned spacecraft to fly to the edge of space and back.

The craft, built by aviation pioneer Burt Rutan, went over space's 100km (62 mile) boundary, said mission control.

I never thought they'd be able to pull it off. This craft is going to the Air and Space Museum and the team is going down in history.
