10:55 a.m. ET: The craft is now on its way back to Earth after apparently reaching the required altitude necessary to win the $10 million Ansari X Prize. Officials said the craft exceeded the 62-mile threshold, but a final determination of the altitude will be made later this morning
62 Miles = 100 km
awesome !
