Experience
Zero Gravity in Space
View Original Description
You may have experienced the thrill of the Vomit Comet (Weightless Wonder) aboard a specially modified Boeing 727 but it left you wanting more. You no longer crave thefeelingof space travel but want the actual experience. Virgin Galactic through the vision of its enigmatic founder, Sir Richard Branson and chief technologist and world famous test pilot, Burt Rutan, plans to offer sub-orbital space flights in the near future. In fact, they are so sure of being able to bring space travel to anyone willing and able that they have been taking reservations and deposits for upcoming journeys into space. Recent testing of the aircraft, a specially designed rocket powered space plane dubbed “SpaceShipTwo” has increased the probability of the common man travelling in space closer to reality than at any time before.
Preparation for the space flight includes three days of intense training and bonding with your fellow space travelers to insure your physical and mental readiness. One goal of the flights’ providers is to have every aspect of the training and flight recorded for you and your family to enjoy for years after the trip has been completed.
You could fulfill your dream of experiencing the weightlessness and thrill of sub-orbital space travel at nearly 4 times the speed of sound by making arrangements directly with Virgin Galactic to be a pioneer of what promises to be one of the greatest encounters a human being can have.
