Next stop, space.

Looks like space may be within reach of some and a few quite soon, courtesy of Sir Richard Branson. Makes me think of the film 'Gattaca", although it is hopefully doubtful only the fittest amongst us would make regular trips.

The bidding is on, the new frontier has arrived.

What I'm trying to say here is, it's never going to happen. You "flight" will either be, too late, unsafe, or you wont leave at all.

A couple million pounds/dollars to sit in a space ship on the launch pad. And that's it. Richard Branson cant even fly a baloon without it crashing, you're going to trust him and his company to get you into space!?!

Richard Branson is awesome. He's the Howard Hughes of our day, just without all the crippling phobias.

I'd trust him. He's not going to be the pilot, after all.

$200 grand for 6 minutes of weightlessness? Doesn't seem worth it to me. :2 cents:

That's not the point.

The point is...it's now as easy as buying a ticket.

As soon as people start seeing some profit in space...we'll all be up there living on the frikin' moon!!!
