Concorde can actually go to about 65,000 ft I think.
I had one of those pleasure flights a few years ago on it (MAN-MAN) and we were at about 55,000 ft then.
You do start to see the curvature of the earth and the sky above is very dark!

I done 37,000ft at tops on a 767. Concorde can cruise at a maximum altitude of 52,000ft… that must be amazing!

Yes, but only on 747’s flying over high ground in my case. Absolutely stunning at dawn.
