It's Not NASA or SpaceX but Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic Space Flight is Still Pretty Incredible
Andrew Cunningham Published 07/13/2021
Dropping a spaceplane from an airplane and shooting straight up to 280,000 feet in a sub-orbital flight is a pretty terrifying yet badass feat to accomplish. The crew was briefly in a zero/low gravity scenario as they floated around the inside of the spaceship looking at the earth from 50 miles above it.
Branson was visibly overjoyed and gave a heartfelt speech about being able to accomplish what you truly want if you never give up, and encouraging others to continue pioneering in space.
