It is planned to attract the first 1000 customers at the end of 2022, after which the trips will become more or less regular.
Space flights Virgin Galactic launch from the spaceport in New Mexico. The total travel time is 90 minutes.
At the same time, passengers experience a few minutes of weightlessness in the cockpit of a space plane, from where they can observe the Earth through 17 windows.
Tickets will sell for 450 thousand dollars. However, customers can make an initial deposit of USD 150k for the booking.
The current fare is higher than the $200,000-250,000 paid by clients awaiting space travel between 2005 and 2014.
