Yeh, i want to go on spaceship one into space in 2009 but it costs $200,000 i think it will be well cool

Tbh when I went on their website, It looks all nice and spiffay, but when you read anything it isnt as good as it first seems.

And it's Virgin Galactic rather than Galactica, I think.

It'll mostly be celebritys going i'd think.. but would be a nice experience.

I gotta say, I wouldnt ever want to be on the first person on the first flight. I would want a fair few people to go on flights before me, to make sure its safe. And Richard Branson said he will obvi go on the first flight....but surely, thats a silly thing to do!

Not really as it'll all be tested etc, they're not gonna get someone to pay £200,000 if they have possibility of death.

People pay to go on aeroplanes and they have a possibility of death. And Im sure as hell they go through a alot of testing ! :rolleyes:

[RedCrisps]

yeh lets get a few tests outta the way first, just so i can see it is safe =]

Thanks for the site, looks like Norman Foster will be designing the spaceport (sounds weird saying that!). This hasn't had much media coverage at all :S
