    To be fair, she never claimed to be an astronaut.

    Also, the Jeff-Dildo isn’t capable of reaching the karman line, so she wasn’t in space either.

      What makes you say that?

      I’m in no way here to defend blue orgin, but the capsule does apogee “just above 100km”. It’s pretty clear getting above the karman line was their main goal.

      If we’re gonna throw shade we gotta be accurate. Lets make fun of them for being suborbital and for making the most phallic launch vehicle ever.

        In that case they seem to have actually upped their game because for a pretty long time they weren’t able to.

        But yes, I’m all in favor of throwing shade, so we can if course make fun of the phallic shape. And in my book, astronauts have been in orbit.
