Jan 23 - Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic showed off models of a spaceship it hopes will take spacetravel mainstream. Trips will initially cost about $200,000 and will eventually go down in price. That's far less than the $20 million reported cost of businessman Dennis Tito's trip on a Russian spacecraft in 2001, considered the first space tourist. Bobbi Rebell reports.

i dont think the human race will survive long enough for space travel to become popular.

This really is paving the way for the new breed of space craft. PUT NASA to shame guys and good on you! Nasa seem to think strapping a plane to a huge rocket was a good idea... untill they lost 2 of them. Cant wait to see the first flight - Ground breaking folks, not a fucking joke like half of the comments on here.

Well kimmel310, if you knew much about space travel or the ansari prize and Virgin success or about their first ship you would then realize that with that design the ship doesn't require heating tiles. It is light enough and the atmospheric entrance surface area is large enough that the ship doesn't burn up on re-entry like NASA's heavy shuttles. I would hope you never get your hands on the money to design and build your own ship. I'd file a lawsuit on attempted murder.
