Video of Virgin Galactic’s historic SpaceShipTwo test flight

They'd have got there sooner but they had to delay while some bastard tried to get his oversized suitcase in the overhead lockers

The sooner they shoot Branson up there and leave him the better IMHO...  Thumbs:

Amazing week for space exploration  :thumbsup:

First this fly-by of Ultima Thule. A mind boggling distance of 4.1 billion miles. This equates to about 6 light hours whereas the nearest star is is about 4.2 light years away. Makes you realise the Universe is a big place  eeek:

Next OSIRIS-REx spacecraft was placed into orbit around the asteroid Bennu.

And finally China lands a probe on the farside of the moon

Interesting timing by the Chinese though.
