    You’re not weightless at just 50 miles up. Matter of fact, you’d still weigh about 99% of what you’d weigh on the ground. It was simply an airplane trick called a parabolic maneuver.

    About 60+ years ago I used to make paper airplanes that this aircraft closely resembles. WoW!

    I’m confused what are we celebrating? The dude is barely in low orbit, NASA was able to land on the moon like 60 years ago.

      That’s to achieve ORBIT. This was a sub-orbital flight.

    I remember when Richard Branson had a special cameo in Superman Returns (2006). He was flying a jumbo jet carrying a space shuttle.

    I’m sure this is just phase one of the new design ships that will reach out farther with cargo and building material for larger construct that reach to the outer solar system.

    Knowing that outer space starts at the Kármán line, some 62 miles above planet’s surface – does hardly touching Mesosphere (53 miles) qualifies for a ‘Trip in Space’?
    Answer: DEFINITELY NOT!
    Richard Branson DID NOT fly in OUTER SPACE!

    Amazing how in 2021 the quality of the ‘call’ to Branson in ‘space’ is lower than that in the 1960’s when the ‘alleged’ moon landing ‘call’ was made to the moon..!?! And how excited they all get to hit ‘space’ when ‘making it to the moon’ was supposedly done 52 years ago.

  58. Chulo Chulo

    His company is officially opened for business. He beat Bezos and Musk in space tourism. I’m extremely happy for him. Its been over a decade of design and testing. All has paid off. His design is one cool ship.

      Sorry, cannot take this seriously until they put someone on control with a less girly, excited voice, and replace it with someone with more gravity…
      It just sounds like somebody’s got a crush, and not somebody that actually narrates on a “normal” person going into space…
