DonPeffers Posted December 14, 2018 Author Share Posted December 14, 2018 Later found out paying tourists not on board for this flight but it did reach 82.7km altitude, edge of space, while carrying NASA equipment payload equivalent weight to the passengers that will be flown later. I'd read in October that Virgin Galactic was weeks away from taking tourists to space but yesterday's flight was not it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
