Virgin Atlantic unveiled the first commercial passenger spaceship Monday in California’s Mojave Desert. The spacecraft, called SpaceShipTwo, is about the size of a minivan and should be ferrying tourists out of our atmosphere and into space in two to three years.
A twin-hulled aircraft called Eve would lift SpaceShipTwo to a height of 60,000 feet before releasing it. Then SpaceShipTwo’s own rockets would power the ship into space.
that pretty cool! But I heard on the radio that it would cost more than $ 100,000 for a 2 and a half hour trip!
YAY! For the future!
I hear Hollywood wanting wanting to make money and making a film about something horribley wrong that might happen.
you should make a laser for astroids
Awsom
thats awesome
cool, this is really intresting how technology is advancing so
rapidly. espescially since this spaceship is going to put tourists in SPACE!!!!!
Also in the picture, you can see the unique single double
tipped wing.
And it’s also intresting how it carries 3 separate seating cabins
(place where you sit and enjoy the flight on a regular airplane)
lots of dough $$$$$ !!!!
Sweet!! BTW, did anyone notice it looks like star trek voyager’s “delta flyer” in basic shape and size?
How much would it cost to take this type of trip into space? This is awesome.
fun!!!!!!
I think that when it’s available to the public I’m going to want to try it!
AMAZING!!
pretty cool, they might as well make a hotel to go with it
awsome
