Looks like the interior could use a few strategically placed handles.
Make it look like Star wars😂
yup, I was thinking same. Also, shame about the length of time being so short and about the seats getting totally in the way. Some interior mods needed me thinks.

I remember as a young boy seeing Richard talk about his dream of space flight. He was so passionate about it that it became my dream too. I gotta say Sir Richard Branson congratulations on accomplishing your dream. You and I will be fellow star travelers someday.
Godspeed!
This isn’t real and shows how easily fooled/mislead the general public are. We need serious help if you think we can genuinely make it past the firmament!

Thank you. It was a lot of work but well worth it.
@Jimbo Bimbo they basically made a big version of the Bell X1 that initially broke the sound barrier. Nothing about this is "amazing". There is absolutely no practical use for the vehicle this group developed. Its a massive waste.

He's so happy and in awe. I'm happy for him, what an experience that must be after all those years.
“Please return to your seats and strap-in for re-entry” must be the coolest and most sci-fi phrase to ever become real 🤩
Did he say Strap-In or Strap-On?
You'd have to leave the atmosphere first to make a re-entry.

@@AnubisSolvang yeah - I'm sure X-15 pilots were told the same.
The vomit comet can make you float but it's definitely not in space
I love the silence, with the odd banging on the metal walls. Similar to being alone on a boat in the middle of the ocean with just the sound of waves smacking the hull.
This was so much better than the Jeff Bezos flight
Thats what I was thinking lol
True
haha yes screw Karman line whatever, you want to be on the space party boat
A BILLION times better!!!! 🙌🏾
It doesn't even compare. Blue Origin's one was a little bit frustrating
Its easy to forget sometimes that these billionaires are real people who still aspire for better things in life just like the rest of us. It was touching to see Sir Richard Branson talking about being a child looking up to the stars with a dream. Congrats
Would love to see the reentry from the cabin with sounds
Congrats Virgin Galactic
Not really Re-entry when they were at Mach 3, hardly any heat at all. Space shuttle was at Mach 20 or so at 100X the temp, which would melt almost all metals.
That was the reentry; there is not much more to that. It is no more than an expensive zero-g flight. Because there’s only a few minutes in zero-g, the speed is not very high/high enough to achieve orbit (do a loop around the earth). However, I am sure in 2 decades we might see a tourist space walk.
@@ccengineer5902 I know it’s not a reentry at orbital speed but they did’t show the shaking, the cabin vibrations and the noise it creates with sound barrier

Mate I can barely put a pizza in the oven without burning it
You're doing it wrong. The key is when you pull the pizza out, not when you put it in.
@@OMGWTFLOLSMH Nah, we need to design a better oven.
@@matthewdavidjarvis6039 But what if you do cook the perfect pizza? What then? Can you cook the perfect pizza twice? It'll never be the same. Maybe the dough will be a little thicker, maybe the sauce will dry out, or maybe the cheese may pull back from the stuffed crust on a slice or two. I aim for perfection, but if I ever got it, I wouldn't know what to do with myself afterwards. I enjoy flawed food - nay! I envy it. Knowing you have room to progress means you have more journey ahead of you. When they say it's all in the journey, not the destination, that's because the destination is a stop sign. When you burn pizza, know that you have many more attempts ahead of you before you can make a perfect pizza, and enjoy the experience of learning because that's the most fun part.
@@matthewdavidjarvis6039 ❤
These ovens should know how to cook a pizza by now.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but you or no one else will ever make it into space because it doesn't exist. The Earth is flat and stationary with a dome over it. Guys like Branson are elite satanists. Their goal is to deceive the masses. They are waiting for their savior, the AntiChrist. A fake alien invasion will probably be happening sometime soon. Research Project Blue Beam.

@@andreasprethaler5705 You really think it feels different to go a few kilometers higher? The sky around you is black, you see the curvature of the Earth below you out the windows, and unlike in a skydive it feels like no force acts upon you.
I ask you, do you go 20km away from shore, do you feel like you're not in the open ocean just because its still 2.2km until you reach international waters? You can't see land either way. Do you come home having fished and go "I didn't really go fishing in open waters, UN says i was 2 kilometers inside the country still"?
PS: 81km is 3 times higher altitude than SR71, the UN made 100km the space limit 50km higher than ramjets would ever fly, to make it the definitive "border to international waters, in space".

Congrats to Virgin Galactic for this historical achievement!
What is historic about it? We've had rocket planes dropped from motherplanes that reach this altitude since 1959. Since then we've far surpassed such a useless altitude and reached actual orbit. This is the culmination in a massive waste of time by Virgin Galactic.
@@seraphiquevox STFU
@@seraphiquevox Because sir Richard Branson has become the first billionaire to go into space.
@@seraphiquevox yeah and everything until recently has been largely by governments. But commercial space travel, while still quite expensive, is becoming more accessible. One day it’ll be even more accessible, and these are those historic first steps.
@@MrTwins95 "spaceplane" is the most asinine thing ever. Burn out to get to 50 mile apogee then start coming back down isn't going to be any more effective travel than a conventional jetliner. This is not nearly the step towards sustained suborbital flight for travel that it seems.

@@MissK816 It is... it's all self serving with no practical application unless you plan to use it to develop actual space launch systems down the line. Basically just a toy for the rich at this point... since all the planned virgin galactic ships are of a similar design that's probably all it will ever be.
One more thing, I guess you could say it gives people jobs... but unless designs and patents are shared then it doesn't really advance us as a species.
I asked my daughter 1 day what she wanted to do when she was older! She told me she wants to be an astronaut, the pride and emotional i felt was overwhelming to me that my child dreamt that high! A few years later i reminded her of her wish and she replied she will just be happy to see the world from space, no so much stay up there for amounts of time, i pray 1 day this amazing opportunity becomes a "relatively affordable" option for the general public because if i could do anything in my lifetime i would see to it my daughter lives out her dream!
I doubt you would do what those girls probably did to get on that flight 😏
It won't be affordable
I hope she meant the real kind...an engineer or another type of scientist, and not a billionaire joyrider.

@@andreasprethaler5705 You can resay this a million times here, but definitions of space vary. Karman line is one but the U.S. military and NASA define space differently.

@@BlackStarEOP Roughly starts at 80km +/-10 as per Mr. Jonathan McDowell, an astrophysicist.
Also, the term astronaut today is now a very broad term. We can say an astronaut as a crew of ISS or a professional job and then astronaut as a spacer or space tourist. But based on the comments I saw, it's still a very long debate lol

And doesn't care when his employees get minimum wage.
Can't help but wonder about radiation exposure.
Hah, so many negative comments from small minded people that have achieved little in their lives. Can’t you just acknowledge that this IS amazing. Jesus lighten up folks.
depending on who's definition of where space begins, they either were or were not in space. Technically they were not in space, hence no re-entry resistant fuselage materials are needed. They just go really high and fall for a while
It doesn’t matter how high they went or whether or not they were “in space” - they don’t need heat-resistant materials because they never achieve anything close to orbital velocity. It’s that velocity that represents the energy that must be lost when an orbiting vehicle re-enters. If you were to go 100, 300, or even 500 miles straight up and back down, you still wouldn’t encounter that level of re-entry heating.
yes right they would burn on re entry from the cosmos am i right like space ships when they re entry needs to get the right angle there is still chance to hit the orbit and get back to the cosmos so just they get above the gravity or something buy it is still cool.maybe the coming back space ship can slow down that much to re entry without burning in the atmosfere
@@bartoszfon7107 They are not beyond gravity, in fact at the hight they are, gravity is the same as on land. They are weightless simply because they are falling. They just went very high and then fell down again
@@bobmyersco As I said, they just went really high and then fell. Not in space, not in orbit, not anything really.
@@doomfathertm8771 except they aren't. As you hear in the video "everyone look out the window, do not miss apogee" Which tells you they were not falling, but most assuredly experiencing microgravity without using techniques as used in the "vomit comet".

Unfortunately he has a prognosis of a very young age do to having Duchene muscular dystrophy & if I could make this happen for him at some point in his life I'd say that would be the ultimate dream accomplished for him.

@@quazar912 Technically it wasn't in space, they just cruised through the upper atmosphere. The Kármán line, the internationally recognized threshold where space is said to begin, is 62 miles (100 km) above Earth. And Branson's craft only got to 53 miles (85 km), roughly the point where the second and third highest layers of the Earth's atmospheres meet. That region is called the mesopause, and it’s also home to the highest clouds in the atmosphere.

No they didn't....
They only went up 50miles..... That's sub space... Not space...
I want a seat on this trip. My earliest memory is flying a fighter jet (specifically an F16) 10 meters of the ground (I could see the wing nearly touching the ground as I banked, 5 meters or so beyond the wing tip). And as soon as I realized the Earth was a spinning ball in space my next dream was weightlessness above Earth. I've had those dreams so many times I cannot even count them. THANK YOU sir richard branson for getting on board with Burt Rutan's concept, its THE way to go suborbital, and it'll be a really cool way to travel soon (just remember to charge a profitable amount not like concorde who charged way too little, charge what someone thinks its worth to arrive from space for a dinner on another continent).
And yes, I'll only buy a ticket if its dirt cheap or a really expensive treat, no middleground. So don't undersell yourself if dirt cheap isn't profitable. I'll pay several years of saved up money to arrive at an airport where a buddy picks me up for an eve online meet, if I arrive in a spaceship from another continent. And I would probably also go from Norway/scandinavia to an Eve meet in London. If I could have the spaceship roll right up to his waiting uber with my buddy in it.

Because it was experienced shortly after..
One small step for a billionaire, one giant leap for millionaires.
Yet not one step for the mere 99% of Mankind
OMG THE GUY WAS SO AFRAID
richard branson, was shitting himself ALL TIME from 1:00 when all the passengers lose the seat belt he started talking [in a clear PR speech] but everybody can see how much strength he puts to hold the chairs arm...
I bet he wore those sungless to try hide a little bit how scared he was...
it was until 1:20 when a girl convinces him to release the belt and he tries... but it is noticeable how "out of the nest" he is, it is definitely not his comfort zone. I bet he only took courage to release the belt because he knew he was being filmed and wanted to advertise it as an "lifetime experience" but if he were alone he would be all time with eyes shut beggining to end.
So the final thoughts of this is that, this space flights might get in the eyes of curious billionares in the near future, but wont be for those 70yo 80yo guys like besos and this one...
it will be for the late 30yo 40yo [assuming there isnt any 20yo billionare in this plannet]
so as long as the billionare population in this plannet is very low... and 250.000 IS A LOT OF MONEY TO PLAY WITH even for a millionare, i believe there wont be much public for space flight
even more because if any passenger decides to buy the ticket at impulse, then he gets there he shits himself like this one... videos and public reviews will be blasted of people scared and regret of the adventure...
lets wait until someone comes with an space elevator to get this thing more confortable/cheap
And a gaint step of global warming for brokes.
@@rafaellima381 Look at his hands shaking.
@@rafaellima381 oh no someones scared while on space while a fucking aluminum can is all that’s keeping him alive. Oh no 😣
His words in space were much more profound than Bezos and Sir Richard spent time actually observing the earth. Cool video
Probably looking for the curve that wasn’t there
@@johndixon7007flat earth and the pathetic theories that surround it have been debunked scientifically time and time again.
I want to see the full interior video right after the rocket fires!
@@neoanderz weird that they did that huh?
They probably did it because it showed the astronauts visibly uncomfortable and this whole thing is about selling future tickets.
@@rubend2480 Nah, this is a promo vid. They don't want to show people scared while trying to sell tickets.
Lol 100000ft is not space 🤣.
@@dashforcash6555 Where did you get 100,000 feet from. Galactic peaks around 55 miles up which is 290,000 feet. In the US 50 miles up is considered space.
I'm honestly excited to see what the flat earthers come up with to explain this one.
They will say somebody put led screen in our window😂
Since they didn't orbit.. The flat earthers don't have to say anything.. Hopefully they will put a larger engine or perhaps a second detachable engine to boost them in orbit..
No FE folks deny L.E.O. flight - Wow, more people went into LEO...Been doing that since the 60's. Wake us up when they get through the Van Allen Radiation Belts and take a picture of the whole Earth. Oh, and I'm not a Flat Earther, for the record. I just love the arguments they make and I even more so love watching the cookie-cutter, automaton-text-book zombies get mad and resort to insults. That's the true pleasure of scientific discovery. Actual scientists never stop asking questions and demanding proof of theory.
@@eldenswordable I think actual scientists have stopped asking some questions
Lollllll
Who else thought Richard was trying to open the window?
Hahaha! Me too for a sec!🤣
He was definitely prying on that rubber seal while grinding his teeth!
Me 😂🤣
Yes me too 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
He was just gonna let in some fresh air
Unlike Beezos and crew, at least they spent a lot of time looking out of the window.
I would think that, for a man who has it all and is rarely moved by things, it speaks volumes just how excited he was during this experience. Imagine how every day people would react!
It's 20+ years in the making.
They thought of everything.
Except for handles by the windows.
New shepherd has think curved edges around the windows that you can easily grasp onto with one or two hands. Surprising VG hasn't thought of that yet.
1:29 - All except Branson are indeed using the curved edges around the windows, designed specifically for this, they mention them in their video tour of the space craft.
@@LeeMaitland yeah I could see that but it just seems very awkward to hold onto.
@@LeeMaitland He's 70 years old so perhaps his fingers are less able to grip hard?
I hope you will built your own spacecraft and there will be handles
Hard to believe that everyone on this flight is indeed a virgin. Wow now that is amazing.
you never know, its secret work
@@uditrautela3910 Not anymore ;) lol
yeah they probably had the cameras on long enough to say everything they had to say then "pop" cameras off who wants to join the 3 mile high club?
Cracken up!!
To dream it… and later in life to make your dream a reality… is a true blessing! Congratulations, Richard Branson!
I wanna see their faces when it releases and fires up
Was thinking the same thing.
FAKE> FAKE LIES>>> CGI FAKE LIES LIES CGI FAKE FAKE
@@mycho4597 Okay flat earther, thank you for your contribution
@@sgeasley lol XD
@@mycho4597 CGI is greater than FAKE but FAKE is greater and less than LIES that is greater than CGI? bro make ur mind up
Would've loved to see a longer, unedited version. Congrats nonetheless!
Ahem - That was as long as it gets, just a couple of minutes free fall - you missed nothing in the freefall/weightless bit
Yeah...they were actually only in "outer space" for 3 minutes...not kidding!
@@GHOOGLEMALE Would've been cool to see the inside of the cabin as they detached from the carrier plane and started pulling 1 to 2 to 3G's
He was not in Space.The Space beginning in 100 Kilometer height
@@andreasprethaler5705 who are you replying to?
Imagine seeing the Earth in your eyes
that would probably be the best sight in your entire life.
tell that to the aliens!
Clearly you've never had a hot looking girlfriend. :)
Yeah.. i see it every day. I dont have to watch Virgin Galactic CGI either!
@@taekwondotime I don't want to waste my life simping ;)
@@nickflix33 your kind still exists?
I'm so proud of richard and😊 his adventures and caring spirit towards others.
I was once a child with a dream looking up to the stars. Now I'm an adult in a spaceship looking down to our beautiful Earth. To the next generation of dreamers: if we can do this, just imagine what you can do".
Branson prepared a little speech that absolutely nobody on board gave a single f**k about. lol
as if you would give a speech instead of getting in on the anti-gravity action. the floating clowns are just bad actors used as a backdrop
@@vac8846 Truth
Hes litterary talking to the kids down there
@Inggo what do you mean down there? they're filming it in a studio with flatscreen monitors outside the "windows" isn't it obvious? 🙄
@@vac8846 haha thats more than i knew. You have a scource on that?
Love how that chick in the back immediately is doing flips, we never truly grow up 😂
Our Santhosh George Kulangalara sir, the proud of Kerala, is proud to say that he is a part of this mission.cheers.....😍😍😍
Richard +floating weightless in the company of these brave young women + His own spaceship=Priceless
Man knows how to travel.
2:18 I thought Branson was trying to open the window up! 😆😆
That was my first thought as well. Why is he opening the window. Someone stop him!
He just wants some fresh air
@@baracuda40 There is a ring all the way around the windows, specifically made to be grabbed onto as a handle; that's why it looks like this!
Just testing the silicon and duct tape
He's trying to get out 😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂
Amazing !! Congrats
Thank you
He didn't actually go high enough.
Remembering the crew of Spaceship Two.
people mentioned it before me, but it's always heart-warming to see billionaires realising their dreams.
An amazing achievement. The very first aeroplane flights were exploratory and available to just a few. Now they are available to the masses. Hopefully now space flight will follow that same path in the coming decades. Just amazing!
I want to see an interior faces of them,when the rocket starts(FIRE)🚀.
LoL I thought he was trying to get outside for Space Walk🤣🤣
Fake... lol
@@johnstanley8091 you mean this is fake?
I want to see him pay his taxes.
They didn't wanna drown out there
I was surprised nobody puked. They had to pull some serious G’s
"...and most of all I'd like to thank Mike Oldfield, without whom none of this would have been possible! Thanks for starting me off, Mike!"
I won't be able to play...............
If you do I'll give you this Bentley.........
I think I can do it
So true.
My secondary school Physics teacher claims he managed the university recording studio where Oldfield recorded Tubular Bells. Apparently Richard Branson still owes him £6 in fees.
Not forgetting the gran that "lent" him the money
And he had a rundown castle
But can't knock him for it,
We would all like that life
And he could of had the money & blown it, he didn't he took it to the next level
Space boom boom
To the next generation of dreamer's..... We will expect a whole lot more. Amazing work Sir Richard
I was expecting to see a stewardess with a safety briefing and peanuts.
@Team Team Spacenuts.
More likely than the taxman
@@skskskksks858 be quite, commie.
I think the most beautiful part is the fact that this ship is manually flown. wow.
I'd like to go there myself sometime in the future.
Lmaoo @ the lady doing flips at 1:05 to them tossing her around at 1:20 🤣🤣 playing too much. Love to see it 🥺
"Welcome to Space" I don't know what's more epic, to say that line, or to hear it as a passenger.
"please return to your seats and buckle in. we are approaching re entry." Haha
Not in space, space is 60miles up, they went 53miles, only in the US do they recognise space as 50miles
To say that as Pilot. Because you are the Badass that brought them there.
@@simonseis744 They were in highest parts of the mesosphere. It basically can be considered the beginning of entering space
Everyone is a passenger on that trip
I've watched this several times, it's amazing to watch the emotion and excitement from Richard when he first experiences seeing space and floating freely. He has worked so hard and with such a dedication to this. I think it's brilliant that throughout his business enterprises, ups & downs that he's become so successful and has achieved a childhood dream. But I'm interested to know what others feel about the morality of being such a tough boss throughout his business enterprises, he's achieved his dreams but might have crushed others along the way. Is this right, wrong or not either of these?
FFFFFFFFFF
Richard Branson - requested a 1.2 billion pound bail out from government. Sued the NHS for 80 million because they lost a contract to provide children health services. Humans already went to space like 60 plus years ago. Thank you Richard I am so very inspired 🙏 ✨ 🙌
Hands down most beautiful flight to space EVER!!
"To the next generation of dreamers: If we can do this, just imagine what you can do!" - Sir Richard Branson, visionary.
not really
Nope. Only a very small number of people become so mind bendingly rich they can jet off to space.
Yes any one with government grants and subsidies can do this.
Just gotta get in the pockets of a few prominent politicians, spend 2 mil on thier campaigns get 2 billion back in grants, subsidies and tax write offs.
No just a very rich man with money to spend. This is not going to ever be avaliable to the common man
Let’s get the footage from inside the cabin to see facial expressions at release and launch 🚀
Agreed. Watching the Livestream was a waste of time. Showed next to nothing about the actual flight. Just sporadic clips of RB and his friends strapped into their seats. They should have POV footage of the entire flight from take off to touchdown.
2:17 : At first, i believed he wanted to open the window.. It wouldn't have made sense if that was the case.. 😂
It's looks like this 😂😂
Hardly looks well made, he pulls back the seal's!😁
He seems to be wearing a parachute.
Yer he's pushing the rubber seal back in where it's coming out 😆
He’s floating around trying to move around and uses the window to hold onto something
At 1:21 proud to see indian flag🇮🇳 on shirisha badla arm❤️❤️
