Who were on the flight other than Coby? 

Coby posted a video on the channel, on November 5, 2022, vlogging his entire journey to space. The rocket lifted from Launch Site One, the company’s facility in west Texas. The flight consisted of a capsule and a rocket. The flight maneuvered much like Elon Musk’s SpaceX Falcon 9 orbital rockets.
