Yes - you can now book your ticket to space.  It’s done.  They’ve done it.  Around 48 hours ago Virgin Galactic unveiled a new spaceship and you can register for a ticket online.  You will go through 3 days of flight preparation before boarding.  It is a sub-orbital trip, meaning you will leave the earth’s atmosphere and gravitational pull behind - to float around and take a look down from the stars.  Flights begin in 2009.  Take a Friday off and on Monday when co-workers tell you they didn’t do much for the weekend…just wait for them to ask you.  $200,000 with a $20,000 deposit.  PURCHASE TICKET
