Friday announcement
No one had mentioned that June 21 is Friday. Typically, announcements made in Friday afternoon were all MP enhancements. So, my guess that the RDM of joint galactic flights is limited to 75K. 🐥

Why not???
There once was an airline United
Where patrons were usually divided
Transmissions from space
Created incredible distaste
For the results that were subsequently provided
I guess we can all be silly or just wait

While I would love a commercial flight from IAH to Space (because I have a lot of miles to burn and a curiosity to go!), I in all seriousness hope it’s a IAH-Moscow announcement! Has nothing to do with Space other than the Houston origination and Russia being a key player in Space exploration, but a boy can dream.
