You&#x27;re the one turning it into a competition, in reality it is simply two separate companies doing different awesome things. Yes, obviously, going into orbit is harder than not doing so. But going to space sub-orbitally is still very difficult and cool, and the only reason there&#x27;s a negative spin on BO&#x27;s achievements is because people feel the need to compare it with SpaceX as if there can be only one.<p>Just be excited for the positive direction of spaceflight in general. Everyone benefits from both companies doing well, even if SpaceX is ahead of everyone else for awhile.
