Space Tourism

People have been talking about space tourism ever since astronauts first landed on the moon. Will the dream ever become reality?

Believe it or not, we’re counting down to the first space tourist flight. The Virgin Galactic Spaceship is due for lift-off soon, and there are rumors that Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are among those who have put their names down to fly.

How exciting! I’m going to book a ticket!

Hang on, it won’t be cheap – each passenger will pay US$200,000 for the three – hour flight.

Over a thousand dollars a minute – that’s extremely expensive!

Yes, but the space tourists will fly at three times the speed of sound, they’ll experience four to five minutes of weightlessness and they’ll be able to look down on Earth. ‘Every passenger will have a spectacular view; they will have large windows and luxurious seats, ‘says Virgin boss Sir Richard Branson, who’s going to travel on the first flight with members of his family. And the holiday will include pre-flight training and three days’ luxury accommodation at the Virgin Galactic space camp. Initially, the spaceships will take off from the Mojave Desert near Los Angeles, but later there’ll be a spaceport in New Mexico.

And what about people who don’t have thousands of dollars?

I’m sure the cost of space flights will come down, and one day ordinary travelers will be able to go on trips into space. So perhaps our grandchildren will spend their holidays on the moon, and have honeymoons in a hotel orbiting Venus. But meanwhile, you can book a spaceship flight online at www.virgingalactic.com with a deposit of US$20,000.

Forget it! I’ve got to go – I’m flying to Florida today …
