Congrats to Branson.
I’m a SpaceX fan but this is an accomplishment for Branson.
Branson will be competing with Bald headed Bezos for Space
Tourism.

Amazing how much SpaceX and now Boeing has accomplished with their out of box thinking. With all the great accomplishments of NASA, they're looking kinda sad now. We really needed a helicopter on Mars with so many rovers?
Commercial space exploration and consumer flights are the future.

SpaceX has numerous successful launches, payload deployments, rendezvous with the ISS, and rocket landings per month.
They’ve also successfully brought humans to and back from the ISS twice.

Very strange that Virgin doesn't even have a video on their Youtube channel yet, nor did they have livestream ... I wouldn't go up on that if you bought my ticket ... Between that first test flight where the old pilot nearly gimbal'd an out-of-control corkscrew roll, and the "Enterprise" smoking pile with the failure to lockout the butterfly deploy, nah.
The over/under on the first controlled egress into terrain is 5 paid flights...
