Virgin Galactic Unity 22 Spaceflight Livestream
11While I am having a break I thought I would keep my channel alive by sharing this beautiful video of Sir Richard Branson making history with the first commercial space flight company "Virgin Galactic" paving the way for future generations to travel into space and becoming astronauts - wow.
I was just in awe when I watched it, and Richard gives a beautiful tribute to his mum Eve. Which he named the mother-ship after and Unity which Stephen Hawking named.
