I agree. They're now arguing over it. NASA claims REAL space is about 100 miles up...yet Branson only went to 50 miles. The ISS orbits at 250 miles up. Other pilots have flown higher than Branson many times.

Don’t get me wrong, I’d love a trip on their shuttles. But it isn’t space, fighter jet pilots can fly to the edge of space. For the money they’re paying, I’d expect to see a good chunk of the planet below me.

...and at least a day in space.
 
These fuckers are rich enough to fake it.

One of the angles they showed of the launch looked like CGI Doctor Who would be proud of.

Just missed this but you can watch it back.
I've just worked out that this reaches the ISS in 8 days from now...that's the 29th. We get an ISS sighting over Manchester that night around 10pm.
