"Space tourism has been been on the launching pad for years, and now, with the backing of Richard Branson, it may finally take flight. Branson's Virgin Group has formed Virgin Galactic with plans to offer suborbital flights into space starting in late 2008 or early 2009. Virgin Galactic has ordered 6 spacecraft based on Burt Rutan's groundbreaking SpaceShipOne design. The first space tourists will undergo 3 days of training in the New Mexico desert and then board a 6 passenger Virgin Galactic spacecraft for a 2 hour flight that will reach 75 miles above the earth. The cost? About $200,000 per person."
