Yes, the company is still private so far so you can't
buy stock, just as you can't in most or all of the
companies involved in this emergent industry like
Space Adventures.
The one good option (well you decide) is that you CAN
buy stock in SpaceDev which is the company that
produced the hybrid motor-engine that went into
SpaceShipOne.
The stock however is one of those "penny" ones and is
not trading on one of the big exchanges (ie., NYSE)
you can find out more about at its website
http://www.spacedev.com. or Yahoo -
http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=SPDV.OB .
I am no stock broker but IMHO I think it is a good buy
if you can take the risk and get a really good price
on it.
But I would like to know if anyone else has any
further information about any of these companies,
opinions on their stock if they are public, plans for
going public on any of the other ones?
