Ok. So, the rich can now purchase flights into space. I would really hope some day a FE'r can afford to head up there for themselves. Just to put an end to it. Somebody should really talk to NASA about that. Would solve all the issues.
Historical question. Russia and the USA have been at odds for a long time. During the race into space, they were definitely not friendly. Especially under communism the USSR was not fond of following rules. How did the conspiracy survive during this time? Would the USSR, once into space, not spread the word that the world is indeed flat, in another attempt to mess with the system the so despised?
