Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic Completes Pioneering Flight

Billionaire Richard Branson achieved a long-standing goal by successfully flying to the edge of Earth's atmosphere aboard Virgin Galactic's VSS Unity. This milestone marks a significant step for space tourism, despite not crossing the Karman line, which some consider the boundary of space. The flight's timing, close to Jeff Bezos's Blue Origin launch, sparked competition and debate. With 600 people signed up for future flights, the commercial space race is heating up, though costs remain high.
