"The governments of the world have always tinkered with outer space, but none with as such fervor as the self-made British billionaire Donovan Taurus who built a private space program for commercial use after he established himself as a well-known entrepreneur. The United States government eventually approached Donovan before the Russians decided to do the same. Kazakhstan's Baikonur Cosmodrome is ancient history and a new age in space travel has been made possible with U.S. government funding, and a billionaire with the foresight to make dreams come true." - The Icarus Project.
