Still counts as space travel.

In much the same way jumping counts as air travel.

I thought being in a plane in the air counted as air travel and being in a spacecraft in space counted as a space travel?

While we are capable of (human) space travel, it's currently only really for science. On the other hand, people travel by air all the time for practical reasons.

It's been a long time since humans were far enough from Earth that their spacecraft didn't experience significant atmospheric drag.

Depends on whether you consider the ISS to be a destination in space.

I don't get it... is this one of those "The moon landing was fake" things or are you like not aware that we've traveled to the moon?

For any meaningful sense of "space travel", the moon and the earth are not in different locations.

Nor are we able to stay on the moon, though that is a weaker point.
