Wally Funk is giving Jeff Bezos’ spaceflight a two-star review.
The 82-year-old passenger on Tuesday’s Blue Origin mission enthusiastically thanked the billionaire for the flight, but the trailblazing former NASA trainee also offered some less-than-stellar comments on the 11-minute trip. We went right on up and I saw darkness. I thought I was going to see the world, but we weren’t quite high enough, said Funk, who’s now the oldest person to travel to space.
While the suborbital Blue Origin flight goes about 10 miles higher than rival Virgin Galactic’s, footage from onboard the flight’s passenger capsule shows what Funk’s talking about.
