For only the second time, VSS Unity, Virgin Galactic’s suborbital space plane, was transformed into…

Technically spaceflight, as long as you use the “50 mile” definition and not the “100 km” definition :)

    It’s cool that spaceflight is getting more accessible. It seems like there would be limited benefit for scientific research on this kind of flight compared to 0g plane flights, but what do I know. Hopefully VG can pull off their transition to the Delta class, and Blue Origin doesn’t stop flying New Shepherd before then.
