Last weekend, Virgin Galactic made history with its seventh flight, carrying six people, including three lucky civilians. Just a month ago, Geoffrey Ravoire went behind the security gate at Cape Canaveral for astronaut orientation. Highlights included a virtual reality experiment by Orbite, taking us aboard Virgin Galactic, SpaceX, and Blue Origin vessels.
