For the mere price of $200,000 you can take a trip into outer space for 2 and 1/2 hours.
Supposing that money were no object, would you do it?
Here`s some info I copied from AOL news :
The spaceship will be attached to the belly of a jet carrier that will take off like a regular plane and then release the spaceship at about 50,000 feet.
There, a rocket will ignite and hurl the ship toward space at more than 3,000 mph.
The ship will peak at about 400,000 feet, and passengers will experience four to five minutes of weightlessness, Whitehorn says. They will be encouraged to somersault through the cabin.
"We are designing the spaceship to allow the passengers to leave their seats and look out of the different windows," he says.
Drawn by the Earth's gravitational pull, the spaceship will glide back for landing.
