Friday 21 November 2008

Five Dutch people have bought a ticket for a flight into space in 2010, the Volkskrant reports. The five will fly with Virgin Galactic, the space travel company set up by British businessman Richard Branson.

Tickets cost between €80,000 and €160,000 in return for which the passengers will be flown beyond the atmosphere and experience six minutes of weightlessness.
