This is something worth watching - from Burt Rutan who I believe is one of the most imaginary and forward thinking people in the invention industry.
My father has two aircraft designed by Burt Rutan, and through his introduction to the man, I have sat back and watched Rutan develop an aircraft that flew around the world non-stop without refueling (The Voyager) and created a spaceship that has possibly revolutionised the process of getting into space.
Take the time to watch this, it's an eye opener.
