Wally Funk, who trained to be an astronaut 60 years ago, will be flying alongside Bezos:

That's amazing. Bit of history being developed here. I'm very excited to see what happens.
I like that Bezos' crew consists of himself, someone that paid to be there, and someone that deserves to be there. Wally originally trained years ago, but was denied by Nasa.

I hadn't looked at it like that. That's really impressive actually. And somehow, so very western? xD

Space war has begun. I wonder how many more will join Branson and Bezos. I am sure wealthy from China and Russia will certainly join the bandwagon. It's going to be a multi-billion dollar business.
