Providing you the full scoop...
I am so excited to share this piece of news with everyone here as it impacts all of us. On Monday, a select group of media folks will be around as Virgin Galactic unveils it's T-8 spacecraft. Wired Blog Network had this to report this morning, 'On Monday morning a special group of media and VIPs will be on hand to witness the unveiling of Burt Rutan's latest aviation marvel-White Knight Two. White Knight Two is a massive ship, more than twice as large as the original White Knight used to lift SpaceShipOne up to 50,000 feet for her X PRIZE willing spaceflights.'
So how much does a ticket cost to go up to space? About $200,000 and you too can go to space. So far, over 250 tickets have been purhcased or have had people put a deposit down to secure a seat.
A date for the first launch has yet to be announced.
