Sorry for posting an opinion. Almost as bad as adam stephen kelly!

The only part I had a problem with was you basically saying that the people who would pay for it are stupid. Sounds like text book jealousy to me.

[Stephen]

They are stupid. And you said you would pay for it so

Of course it's a waste of money. The people who booked tickets have more money than senses. They could go up, roll about in no gravity for 5 minutes and then go back down and that's really worth $200,000? I could go in a no grav simulator and go 50,000 ft in a plane for less than 3k. I can then buy the most expensive telescope and see all the planets still for less than $200k. I can then go in a sim again about 10 times and then go in a plane another 10 times still for under 200k

But look at bill gates. With his wealth he could do that trip 150,000 times. Or once a day for 411 years.

To A LOT of people 200k is nout.

I think Milestone's post about sums it up. Really stupid yeah.

It's ok, I don't take offence xxx.

A $200k price tag? No thanks.

Maybe if I win the lottery and don't expect to live long enough to spend the money.

Wow people like you really annoy me. Yes I think it's stupid and yes I wish you had enough money to go up there so I can prove my point.*REMOVED* because of how you are to people on this forum. I hate people who basically have nothing but a body and no organs. Now, I would really appreciate it if you did not reply to me anymore on here or I'll just report your posts.

This is my last post in this thread because I really cannot be bothered with you.

Can't be bothered or know you're wrong? Good luck reporting my posts when you're banned. I gather from what you've written you think I'm not nice to people on this forum, well actually I disagree - I've helped people but whatever you say. I'd love examples but you're ignoring this thread (yeah right)!

To stop this going off topic I'll relate back to the original topic: the cost of the journey. I guess our opinions (and brain function) differ when it comes to whether or not it's a waste of money. No need to take it personally when someone has a superior opinion backed up with solid figures.

By the way, if I didn't have organs I'd be dead. I really hope you read this because I like annoying people like you. Thanks for the +rep, babe.

I imagine in 20 or so years it'll be less.

Anyway this is my dream experience tbh, to go into space for fun (ie not working for nasa or the european space station ). I do not get why rich people like bill gates did not do this first? Richard branson is hardly the richest of the rich, unless its a collaboration effort.

I hate, absolutely hate how it is based in America when it's a british company (well branch of a british company).

that's really cool, i don't think i would ever have the courage to do that though! Although when you think about it flying in a plane is dangerous too and i do that all the time. It would be Virign who come up with another section for it though!

I can almost gurantee in around 47 years a flight almost similar to this will cost fractions of the price.
