Re. the Virgin Galactic mothership: Is it just me, or does that thing seem inherently unsafe to others? I realize that during its flight up, it will carry a smaller space plane between the two fuselages. But on the way back it will be flying without the centerpiece, so to speak, and then it will depend on the single wing staying together. Yet the wing looks especuallly spindly in the center, and any wind sheer hitting just one side could snap it -- that's how it looks to me. Patrick? Or any other aviation expert want to tell me why this is just a misapprehension?
