Not Related to Anything – Just a Rant

I’m not here to poo-poo anyone’s adventure to the edge of space.  I’m glad Katy Perry, Gail King, and others had a successful Blue Origin flight this morning (April 14, 2025).  As a big fan of William Shatner, aka Captain Kirk, he is also a Space Tourist.  None are astronauts, none have gone through the years of training to make that claim.   Just because I can get on a Delta flight to Las Vegas doesn’t make me a pilot.  Is this something we can agree on?
