This is a link post I want a ticket
The first powered flight of Virgin Galactic's SpaceShipTwo.

If the program continues at the same pace as SpaceShipOne they're still at least six months away from getting people into space, but this is the single biggest milestone behind them now.

TLDR: Neeeeeooooowwwwww!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSH!!!!

This is a normal post I'm no rocket scientist, and I would gladly be corrected, but
isn't the black and orange exhaust a sign of a really inefficient combustion?

This is a normal post Maybe
But that's largely what SS1 looked like too. Thing is they're burning laughing gas and rubber. I don't know what the by-products of that reaction are, but I'm willing to bet its not water.

And where was the WOOOOOSH?

This is a normal post woosh.
The orange is uncombusted carbon, the black is soot, so also unconbusted carbon.

This is a normal post Low tech
The rocket motor is pretty low-tech, and the whole project seems rather shoestring. I don't think I'll be buying a ticket.
