Space, mans final
frontier! To take a journey, even if only for a moment into
space, would fulfill many a dreamers desire for the experience
of a lifetime. After almost fifty years of human spaceflight
beginnings, business has finally reached the age of creating
the opportunity for many to experience the
excitement of a sub-orbital space flight.
Each Space Participant
would be required to undergo several days of pre flight space
training to experience G forces and weightlessness as to enlighten
what they are to expect from their future sub-orbital flight.
Every carrier desires to make all their participants comfortable,
safe and bring their opportunity to everyone as soon and as
reasonably priced as possible. However, since this business
is so new we present some of the following companies who
are preparing for this adventure.
With the high cost of registering for a future

Pricing ranges from $98,000 to $300,000 USD and with Virgin
Galactic's SpaceShipOne,
from Scaled Composites,
having proven its sub-orbital capabilities in October 2004, it seems that the
chances of one or more of these companies are very probable to become FAA certified
and operational to the public within the next few years. Irregardless of who
achieves this challenge, Xtraordinary Adventures will bring its selected
space participants into this arena to become a part of space history.
What is offered is a chance to be on a sub-orbital space flight plus the opportunity
to meet others with similar passion from around the world, while cruising on
the 5 star luxury yacht Sea
Dream,
along with several NASA
Hall of Fame Astronauts,
who will randomly select in front of everyone, the passengers and alternates
for the future flight of a lifetime. In addition, all registered participants
shall be brought to the Kennedy
Space Center for a variety of special events including a chartered Zero-G
flight, receive a special flight suit along with photos and a DVD of their
experience. Also, all participants will receive a special 2-day space experience
training at NASTAR in Southhampton,
Pa where NASA has
trained several Astronauts and a membership
in the XTRAORDINARY ADVENTURES SPACE CLUB. .
