X Prize Update While the main focus of this article is X Prize contenders' views on continuing on after Columbia, it also includes information on some of the competitors that I had not heard as much about. Addendum: I'd been waiting to get my copy of Wired to read their X Prize article, but it was on my news summary page today, and I had to note that according to the article, SpaceShipOne may make its first spaceflight this summer, meaning that Scaled Composites would actually beat China to become the third entity into space. I'm sure the Chinese will take the position that the Soviet Union did when the U.S. launched Shepard and Grissom, that it doesn't count unless you can orbit the Earth, but still, it's kind of an interesting turn of events.
