Their goal is certainly worthy, and they seem to be savy enough to understand that fun gameplay should not be sacrificed to gain more edutainment value.

The only problem that I can see that can ground this shuttle is the money. Or lack thereof. If I read it right, they can't pay any company to make the game. But there's some blurb about exclusivity and brand placement etc.

I'm not saying it's impossible, but let's be blunt. Money talks, B.S. moon walks.

Having said that, this could be an opportunity for Branson's Virgin Galactic Spaceship One.
