[wrylie188]

This guy has my vote for coolest person on the face of the planet.

Here in Ireland-there are a few nouveau riche or just grotesquely rich 'parvenu space cadets'-who believe they fit the 'bill' =hint. Jesus wept! From Edwards AFB ; Jet PL of Pasedena; and Ames Research-south of SF---to eastern space range at Cape Canaveral-I have 'bumped into' a few real 'cutting edge' heroes;and know a fake -when I see or hear them. Maurice Aherne aka liebewitz in Ireland

9 g is less vomit inducing than watching wealthy civilians(many I presume non-pilots) infer on this clip-that they are somehow visionary or cutting edge. I can accept Chuck-and Richard B-for their respective talents---but who the hell are the others? Isn't there a ski resort open somewhere for them?

First man in space: Yuri Gagarin.

[aquarius17grade]

It's a pity that we live on this planet a lifetime but we never have the chance to see the Earth from Space ,zero G.I imagine its an experience that transforms you and your beliefs about this world and human race.Every human should have this chance in future ,Universe have enough energy for this and should be free one day.

[SunSin1000]

Q: how much G fores do you feel and how much heat on re entry.

[copterx007]

Hope get to ride Spaceshipone experience Zero-G and see the beauty of our fragile planet

[ucrono]

lol space is virgin territory

[GlassDeviant]

It has been over 40 years since a human being first set foot on the moon, isn't it about time for a few more people to visit space? The only reason NASA hasn't gotten further in the last 40+ years is that unlike when they had a President pushing them, they are being "careful" now. Go Richie!

[kooodeal]

To boldly go where no man has gone before...applies to Sir Richard Branson...
