This was on digg a few days ago (thats how I know about it)...

Has anyone else seen Bigelow Aerospace - they launched an orbiting inflatable spacecraft a few days ago (on top of a Russian ICBM).

The site has some photos and videos: http://www.bigelowaerospace.com/index.html 

Interesting that this didn't get much media coverage - I didn't hear a thing about it on any of the TV stations (though on their site it looks like it got a bit of coverage).

What's amazing is that by looking at the site, you almost get a sense that they're pretty laid back - interesting comparing their attitude to NASA's. But they look to be doing pretty good - with a second launch scheduled in fall of 2006.
