Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
I greatly desire to go to space & look back on Earth if only for a brief few minutes, Iβm confident it would be a life-changing experience, youβd have to be emotionless not to find it awe-inspiring.
Whatβs quite exciting is that I live just a mile or two from an Airport in the UK that Virgin will one day be flying to space from! To think it may actually be a possibility to visit space as a common-man in the next 10-15 years is phenomenal.
I donβt get it, I thought the Karman line was 100km
SpaceX, Virgin Galactic, Blue Origin. I don't care which company will take me to space, but I know that I want to go even if just for a few minutes. I want to see my Home, my planet.
They actually made it to space before the end of the year? Fantastic that they met their goals this time around! Now it just needs to become more affordable...
Great video. The music, the reactions.. everything about it. Gave me the chills.
Duplicate Post. I am not a fan of your actions.

If, by "in space," you mean somewhat below the KΓ‘rmΓ‘n line, where general agreement puts the start of space, and by "for the first time," you mean "since 2004, when SpaceShipOne DID cross the KΓ‘rmΓ‘n line," then sure....
People have the memory span of a slow goldfish.
This is wonderful. All the better for the people, not governments in a race, that are taking us to space. The future is coming slower than expected, but it's coming and with giant leaps. This is the perfect antidote to the misery we see on the news each day.
Branson is starting to resemble Immortan Joe.
