I think it's ugly. Neat concept but a waste of money on the part of the builders and the purchasers of the tickets in my eyes. All the money in that project could have been used better IMHO.


I'm sure some people said the same thing about the Wright brothers.

It's a great investment for Burt. He's getting more business and more notoriety, who knows where it will lead. And Paul Allen didn't become a billionaire by wasting money on stupid ideas.

I doubt Burt's goal was to build an amusement ride, but it helps fund his projects directly and indirectly, so why not. The entire operation is privately funded.

NASA, on the other hand is a waste of money, IMO. If they were privately funded, they'd still be on the ground.
