New Space Race: Did Richard Branson really travel to 'space', and how the flight stacks up against Jeff Bezos'
Billionaire Richard Branson flew to the edge of space on July 11 on board the ‘Unity’ rocket ship his company, Virgin Galactic, had been developing for around two decades.
Branson, nearly 71 years old, and five crewmates from his space tourism company reached an altitude of about 88 kilometres over the New Mexico desert in the United States. The altitude was enough for them to experience three-four minutes of weightlessness and see Earth’s curvature before safely gliding back to the company’s Spaceport America facility.
