How can they fly on a similar trajectory when they're launching from Van Horn, while Freedom and Friendship 7 launched from Cape Kennedy? Perhaps a suborbital trajectory is meant, but New Shepard doesn't fly as high as the Mercury, reaching "only" 75 mi (120 km) in apogee at most while the Mercury could reach up to 125 mi (200 km). 213.142.96.67 (talk) 05:35, 8 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
