Do you fancy a trip to Space with Virgin??

[KayleeUK]

Just saw this on the news.


Virgin boss Sir Richard Branson has announced his company has signed an agreement worth £14m to secure the first commercial flights into space. The deal with the US firm which owns the technology could be worth millions over the next 15 years, depending on the number of space vehicles built.

Prices for each seat into space are expected to start at around £115,000.

The new service will be called Virgin Galactic. Up to 3,000 astronauts could be flying into space over a five-year period, according to Virgin.

So has anyone got a spare £115,000??? If you did would you go to space???

Or you could do it a little more cheaply.....
