It was founded by Mike Scott (a former Apple Computer president). They hope to steal away some commercial satellite launching business from NASA. They're based in Redwood City (south of San Francisco), and have as a major investor Steve Wozniak, among others. Has anyone heard anything about these people recently? I know they were scheduled to try a test launch this fall off of Point Conception, using a Dolphin Rocket. -- Rick Kiessig decvax!sun!idi!kiessig or ucbvax!sun!idi!kiessig
