One example of this manipulation was when a putative ally of Evan Law filed two complaints full of fact-free accusations against Sam Liccardo, Law’s opponent in the 16th Congressional District. The drama began when Roe fought to block a recount of votes after coming in second to Joe Simitian in the primary. In April,…

“The capsule itself is designed to carry eight passengers and two crew members up into the stratosphere,” World View CEO Ryan Hartman said. “It has a central bar where people can congregate, and of course there are restrooms inside the capsule.”The balloon flight lasts about six hours. Most planes that carry passengers into space reach altitudes of 15 to 19 miles above the Earth’s surface, flying in a region called the stratosphere.
