It looks pretty poor compared to real orbital flight. For those few seconds in zero G "above" the karman line, people give huge money. By definition, they are still not astronauts, since managing the capsule is an automatic process. Although Blue Origin likes to state that their passengers have become astronauts regardless of the rule that says if you don't orbit, jumping over the karman line should be managed by the passengers as in the case of the X15 pilots who were granted astronaut status solely because that they were actually flying the craft.

@rbrtck 18 дней назад

It's marketing. Real astronauts have to at least be trained and capable of flying the spacecraft in an emergency. Automation has always been the norm for the Soviet Union and Russia, and it is the case with the SpaceX Crew Dragon, as well, so we might decide not to let the presence or absence of automation alone determine astronaut status.

I love all things space related but this and Branson's plane thingy are so disappointing. Neither has lived up to the hype and both - imho - are pretty much pointless.
