Branson is very good at 'blowing his own trumpet'.
All he seems to doing on this project is providing money and grabbing as much publicity as he can, Burt Rutan's people seem to be the ones doing the real work.
- sixothree 14y agoI thought the pairing was a nice fit. They both have their place and it seems to work to their mutual benefit quite well.
- rayiner 14y agoTo be fair, Paul Allen and Richard Branson are bankrolling Rutan's party.
- melling 14y agoYes, fortunately most of us understand the importance of publicity when trying to build a new business, especially one where your clients aren't going on a ride at Disney World. I'm sure Richard Branson understands Burt Rutan's contributions. He, however, needs to sell tickets.
- kibibu 14y ago> All he seems to doing on this project is providing money How do you propose this would happen without Branson's investment? Space tourism seems like a pretty risky business proposition to me, and I think he deserves credit for backing it with actual money, rather than words.
