We'll be watching this live from The Engadget Space Center!

SpaceShipOne will rocket to 100 kilometers (62 miles) into sub-orbital space above the Mojave Civilian Aerospace Test Center, a commercial airport in the California desert. If successful, it will demonstrate that the space frontier is finally open to private enterprise. This event could be the breakthrough that will enable space access for future generations.

So once SpaceShipOne gets in to sub-orbital space, the Vulcans see this, they land, we get world peace, then we fight the Borg.
