Spaceship Two apparently suffered equipment problems in its test flight earlier, today, and crashed in the Mohave Desert.

What was to be a triumphant test flight for Virgin Galactic turned into tragedy when SpaceShip Two, the first suborbital commercial spaceplane, crashed into the Mohave Desert this morning. So far the live reports given by the Air Traffic Control channel indicate that at least one of the crew has been found with serious wounds.​

BBC reporting one dead, one on the way to hospital with moderate to major injuries. Most U.S. media ignoring pending finding some way to blame the crash on Bush.
