“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. It was carried to 50,000ft (15km) by its launcher White Knight at which point it was unleashed. It fired its rockets to continue its trip.” The BBC’s servers are being hit hard at the moment - if you can’t get the story, try again later.

Maryland Game Developer Vision

Agreement To Develop Space Station Game

Maryland Game Developer Vision
Videogames Receives NASA Space Act
Agreement To Develop Space Station Game 05/31/2004 01:55 PM
Vision Videogames of Towson, Maryland received a Space Act Agreement from The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) earlier this month to develop their PC/PS2/Xbox game, Space Station:SIM, due for consumer release this Christmas season. The Space Act Agreement is a continuation of one received by GRS Games before Vision Videogames management bought out the company in March 2004. It allows Vision Videogames a flow of information from, and access to, NASA personnel so the company can gather information to build their game. “The game has captured everyone’s imagination. We have individuals and international agencies including JAXA (The Japanese Space Agency) volunteering to help us with drawings, science, music – anything you can imagine,” says company president Bill Mueller. In Space Station:SIM, the player assumes the roll of the Chief Administrator of NASA, creating astronaut crewmembers with unique needs, abilities and personalities while managing their activities and personal relationships like “The SIMS®”.

Space Invaders returns!

I’m old enough to remember when it was new. My arcade-playing days predate the first-person games—for me, arcade games are about shooting things in outer space. Controlling a human walking around with a gun seems so mundane and puny. I need rockets and ray guns.

I was a big fan of Galaga and Asteroids too, and I’ve spent many hours playing Swoop and Maelstrom.

Another favorite was Missile Command. Does anyone know of a good OS X version of Missile Command?

Unlike the game on which it is based, this design product will cost you more than just a fistful of quarters -- $3,000, to be exact.

The $350,000 Amplifier: Wavac SH-833

The $350,000 Amplifier: Wavac SH-833 08/16/2004 08:06 AM

What does a $350,000 home audio amplifier sound like? Fucking awesome, apparently, which made me cough a little exhalation of relief as I was reading Stereophile's review of the Wavac SH-833, the third-of-a-million dollar amp in question. I don't know from audio, really, but I know what I like, and that's vacuum tubes, lots of them, all visible and glowing, and the SH-833 has those in spades. It also has stuff like direct-heated-triodes and single-ended, class-A tube monoblock power, but I don't know what the hell those are. But when Michael Fremer says the SH-833 is the best sounding amplifier he's ever heard - the bastard got one installed for two months by the engineers who created it - I'm going to just have to believe him, because otherwise, I'd have to believe all those stereotypes about audiophiles being overly susceptible to buying ridiculously overpriced gear, and then my whole reality would come crashing down around me.

Oh, and for the budget conscious, there's a $70k bargain version. But could you ever show your face at the ball wearing that? (Thanks, Adam!)

Why? Because the inside is filled with solid gold pudding, and developing non-conductive golden pudding is the sort of science that doesn't come cheap.
