Space Hotel to open in 2012


The 1st hotel in space is going to open its vacuum filled doors in 2012.  Guests will be able to see the sun rise 15 times a day and travel around the world every 80 minutes. 

So out of 200 interest parties, 43 people have signed up.  Yes its true.  The cost of a ride on Virgin Galactic is $250000 excl. hotel accomodation.

Virgin Galactic is offering their own package if you not too keen on the hotel idea.  They will offer a trip which takes approx 3 days to return to earth.  They have already received monies from 300 people for their flights which can accomodate 4 guests at a time.
