Virgin Galactic’s virgin flight flying entire Branson family out.
Posted on February 16, 2008Sir Richard Branson, the filial son, will take his aged parents, on his maiden space flight. If an accident happens, the entire Branson lineage will be gone.
Richard, 57, has planned to fly on the Virgin Galactic, in 18 months’ time. He will take his father, Ted, 92, and his mother, Eve, 89. He said that his grown up children, Holly, 25, and Sam, 21, will be on board too. This does not sound too wise.
The flight will cost around £ 100,000, last for about 2 and ½ hours but has only 5 minutes of zero gravity weightlessness. Non-astronauts will have the chance to experience space travel. Dave Clark, the boyfriend of Princess Beatrice, has persuaded Bea to be a space flyer too. Many other celebrities had also booked flights for their space travel.
