Anomaly Aboard The "B" Ark*

A CONCEPTUAL ILLUSTRATION OF SPACESHIPTWO INTERIOR. IMAGE: V. GALACTIC.
Charging the filthy rich U.S.$250,000 for a suborbital trip & then crashing/exploding the spacecraft w/ the spendthrift assholes still aboard is the most exciting (if expensive) population control idea that's come across our desk in some time.

Admittedly, work is needed on where the craft meets the ground (assuming it hasn't mostly burned & broken up before impact) the Mojave not being that difficult a target. There are, for example, intersections in various large & densely-occupied urban areas that are more challenging targets, & much worthier of total destruction, &/or receiving a huge &, we hope, flaming debris field.

The only foreseeable drawback from our perspective is the possibility of fare increases on our next Virgin Atlantic flight across the pond.
*Or, "Stairway To The Desert Floor." (Too soon? Hah! Your "time" is entirely relative.)
