They aren't allowed to put anything in orbit but their goal is to reach over 120km in height IIRC. This will be a record for a flight that is non-gubmint/non-corporate.

So who is preventing them from going into orbit? If Tesla just put a hunk of junk in orbit, on purpose, why can't they launch into orbit?
Good Monday morning all. I noticed a flt on the El Camino yesterday. The tire shop says it is too close to the sidewall to fix, and I need a new tire. One 235-60/R15 is over 200 bucks now? Wow, I remember putting a set of 4 on for 250 bucks.
