Billionaire Branson set to fly to space aboard Virgin Galactic rocket plane tomorrow, a week earlier than Jeff Bezos. I will be watching. Who is Sir. BransonSir Richard Branson has named the date he'll fly to the edge of space. It will be 11 July, or very soon after. He'll be a passenger in the back of the Unity rocket plane his Virgin Galactic company has been developing in the US for the better part of two decades. The vehicle can climb to an altitude of 90km (295,000ft), giving those onboard a few minutes of weightlessness and a view of the curvature of the Earth. Sir Richard's intention is to introduce a commercial spaceflight service. Some 600 individuals have already lodged deposits to take the ride. Witnessing the British entrepreneur do it means those customers are now getting extremely close to having to hand over the full ticket price, which in some cases will be $250,000 (£180,000). Sir Richard Branson said: "I truly believe that space belongs to all of us. After 17 years of research, engineering and innovation, the new commercial space industry is poised to open the Universe to humankind and change the world for good. "It's one thing to have a dream of making space more accessible to all; it's another for an incredible team to collectively turn that dream into reality."

上午看实况心里还是有点感动。人类一代一代在朝前走,一百年前赖特兄弟的探索,50年后登月,今天私企、个人飞向太空,20年后大概航天就像航空一样了!

工業革命才兩百多年,人類就上天入地了。確實了得。
我倒沒什麼感動的,雖然從前對航空有點著迷。現在我更擔心人類自毀。
