Despite his £350m spacecraft crashing, Richard Branson still wants to fly to space
yesterday…billionaire businessman Richard
Branson’s £350m Virgin Atlantic experimental
Spacecraft called the SpaceShipTwo crashed after an
explosion during a test flight over the Mojave desert in California, killing one pilot, and seriously injuring the other. The spacecraft broke apart soon after it was detached from the launch plane that carries it to 45,000ft
Despite this, Sir Richard has vowed to carry one with his attempt to reach space. He is due to arrive the scene of the accident to see the wreckage of the
experimental plane he’d hoped would take him, his
family, and paying customers, beyond Earth.
Writing on his website while en route, Sir Richard
said it was “one of the most difficult trips I have ever had to make. We’ve always known that the road to space is extremely difficult – and that every new transportation system has to deal with bad days early in their history. Space is hard – but worth it. We will persevere and move forward together”.
Some celebs were even scheduled to join him in the spacecraft to go to space…to see gini biko? Hope after this, people will rather remain on earth.
