If the idea of taking a holiday in space seems completely far out, think again. Maverick entrepreneur, Richard Branson, plans to unveil a Virgin Galactic spaceship and begin test flying in 2008.
Trade journal Travel Weekly, recently reported that the first space carrier, SpaceShipTwo will carry six passengers and two crew, and launch from 60 000 feet after being lifted to that altitude by a new jet aircraft called WhiteKnightTwo.
But it won't come cheap. According to Branson, prices could start around £140 000 (R1 960 000) for a mere 20 minutes in space. Luckily for us, he hopes to bring prices down as demand increases. Watch this space – better yet – book it!
