BOTH MEN ARE NATIONAL HEROES,
CARVING A ROUTE INTO THE FUTURE. OUR COSMIC EXPLORATION TIMELINE AS A RACE WILL CREDIT THESE PIONEERS FOR THEIR IMPORTANT WORK.
ALL THE MORE SO BECAUSE THEIR WORK WAS FREE.
The world is being destroy the ocean, water, air, food, people is wasting money going into space where u cant breath the air, or enjoy the sun or grow food. Such a waste build back up the planet earth better stop wasting time in your time going into space. Enjoy what God gave us
Burning fuel and ruining atmosphere for all of us, unbelievable what money buys. These 3 A holes should give back to community not rob us from future.
No you can’t build on the MOON
Greed is going to get you
Instead of spending so much on going to “space†for bragging rights doing something we’ve already accomplished in the 60s, Bezos needs to increase the pay for the company he created (Amazon)..
I’ll at least give Elon Musk credit over the others.. He’s doing more than they are. 😅
In a world that is heating up wondering the impact on climate?How does it fit the carbon neutral goals for slowing down climate change?
Branson came back; okay.
Bezos came back; okay.
Musk came back; okay.
Can we please give Zuckerberg a one way ticket?
There is a Bob Marley song….
Men sailing on an ego trip
Blast off on their spaceship
Million miles from reality
No care for you, no care for me
So much trouble in the world…,
If you people really think we ever went "outer space" then you all are space heads 🤺
No earnings ever 25$
I don't know if this should even be considered "space" tourism, I mean he traveled 100 km outside orbit only, ok sure it's space. But I feel it's like saying you visited India by paying a visit to the Indian embassy in New York or whatever city, technically your in India but still it isn't. Space tourism is not gonna be something for a while, the moon might be the only real destination and it will take a while before we can colonize it. First things first, we need to clean up our environment asap before thinking about space hedonism.
These rich people are desperate to get out of earth and leave us behind with all the trash to clean up.
Most countries can't afford to put a man in space. It's a clown act if the American government
expects the public to think it's a "billionaire space race", not a new military-industrial complex
to bypass American government involvement without informing voters before taking actions.
You are SAVED by BELIEVING in JESUS CHRIST who DIED for ALL sin to SAVE ALL who BELIEVE in HIM. PROMISED ETERNAL LIFE by BELIEVING in HIM. He DID ascend to Heaven on the third day. HE IS at the right hand of God. He is preparing a place for ALL who BELIEVE. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is for all. Know the truth. Know who IS your Savior. Know that he suffered for ALL. To SAVE ALL. This life is clearly temporary and when you know why then it will confirm the truth even more! SEARCH FOR THE TRUTH. FEAR GOD. NOT MAN. PREACH THE GOSPEL. ITS WHAT JESUS DID! All Glory to God. Look at the world! WATCH 🎺
Elon Musk
We all do, if you are willing to chip in and send the broke ass fake billionaire Trump into space, one way trip.
all that money for a few min. i was disappointed watching this
Evel Knievel syndrome is alive and well in America. The celebration of American ignorance.
Why aren't these billionaires investing in desalination plants? You know, something the people of earth could actually use instead of fancy spaceships to nowhere?
Perfect reasoning for progressive taxes. How does Amazon not a pay a penny in taxes for years and yet the owner is flying jet to space just to further his 'business'? Our tax system and society as a whole is broken.
The rich and the richest
Hm. The wealthy are exploiting the wealthy? Great idea! Bonus points: Loading all the gazillionaires onto a space ship, launching them into space and, fingers crossed… ðŸ˜Ëâ€
Meanwhile the planet is going to hell.
I wouldn't mind going to iss for few months. I love nasa
Here's a good one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g8v_UoZyXqk&t=692s
who benefits? um, billionaires?
Pat yourselves on the back because when it comes to it only the wealthy will be able to afford it middle income people will still be inhaling all the burnt fumes from those great adventures while still damaging our atmosphere.
I am excited for these guys! Looks like a lot of Billionaire fun!
Research it. Richard Branson did NOT go into space. There's and article on Jalopnik about it. He literally was not quite in space. Further…even if he were tomake it all the way to true space, he still can't really claim going to space. Can you take the loop around San Antonio, keep going, and really brag about having "been to San Antonio?"
Earth is amazingly wonderful, take a dive in the blue ocean. It's 500 times better than that space no gravity blah blah millionaires are sometime nonsense
Watching that "spaceflight" was a joke.
Now maybe something will be done with space the only thing that makes anything turn in this world is money
A personal god is not a real god.
We now live in a society where mankind‘s potential is being funneled into pet projects for billionaires instead of furthering our knowledge of the universe and our species. We. live. in. a. society. 😑
A high altitude vomit comit that never actually entered zero gravity is not beneficial other than to they that hide the flat Earth.
