Sonic boom as the booster lands, pretty neat. Stuck the landing to boot! Seems like they've got a handle on their landing tech. Now we just gotta get the people back on the ground without becoming jello

The FAA, responsible for protecting the public during commercial space transportation launch and reentry, said "SpaceShipTwo deviated from its Air Traffic Control clearance as it returned to Spaceport America" in New Mexico.

"Virgin Galactic may not return the SpaceShipTwo vehicle to flight until the FAA approves the final mishap investigation report or determines the issues related to the mishap do not affect public safety," the agency said.
