In two years you will be able to reserve your ticket to space, as you reserve a ticket to the Middle East or Europe. the dream of many people has become true with a new line of technology that was developed by a private small Aerospace company called XCOR based in California.
The company announced the development of tourist spaceship called “LYNX”, the spaceship is only two seats and it is planned to lunch in two years. According to XCOR, the trip should be affordable and accessible to every one “The Lynx will offer affordable access to space for individuals, researchers and educators,” said XCOR CEO Jeff Greason. “Future versions of Lynx will offer ever-improving capabilities for scientific and engineering research and commercial applications.”
The great thing about the ship is that it has the ability to go to space several round-trips a day, and the expected time for the flight is 30 minutes only. The company produced animation video showing the whole trip from taking off from the runway until coming back to the same location.
