i didn't know about this until today.*
three died in testing for SpaceShipTwo on Thursday.
i don't read /. often because it's like drinking from a firehose, but the comment thread has some gems hidden among the obligatory "foo people die in Iraq every day, stop being upset over these guys!" (including great insight on what may have happened based on chemical and engineering knowledge.)
