SDQDI Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Wow now that would be a trip to remember, I find the view from a few thousand feet spectacular but that would be something else. One of my favourite things about flying is it just reminds me how small and insignificant me and my problems are:nod: and helps me see the big picture, although maybe that high would make things look so small and insignificant that it would be scary:oh yeah: Ps it sounds like the training would be enough fun to keep me happy for a while:crazy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gofastclint Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 These first civilian space flights reminds me of another first many of us can relate to. A first that's over way too quickly and no matter what you say, you know the rocket was out of fuel way before the girl got in to orbit. Give it some time for research and development, then before you know it, you'll be over the moon. My bet is with SpaceX as they have made orbit and want more than profits, there is passion for a greater good. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marty_d Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 That was almost too subtle for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
