Virgin Galactic.

Post by Gregers »

Congratulations to Sir Richard Branson and the Virgin Galactic team for today's successful space flight, earning Sir Richard and the other five members of the crew Astronaut wings. . May this be the first of many.

All the best

Honestly, if I won the lottery, I'd spend the extra and go with SpaceX - at least that truly goes to orbit!
