Flight

More than 65,000 would-be space tourists have applied for the first batch of 100 tickets.
The price will initially be $200,000. The duration of the flights will be approximately
2.5 hours, though only a few minutes of that will be in space.

In December 2007 Virgin Galactic had 200 paid-up applicants on its books for the early flights,
and 95% were passing the 6-8 g centrifuge tests.
