ヴァージン・ギャラクティック、宇宙旅行の旅券を千人に5,200万円で売ることを発表

90分の宇宙旅行が5,200万円!

昨年7月、英国ヴァージン・ギャラクティックの宇宙船「VSS Unity」が会長のリチャード・ブランソン氏を乗せ、宇宙空間に到達しました。あれから半年が経ち、2月16日から民間へ搭乗券の販売が開始されることになりました。

発表された内容は、1,000人限定でひとり45万ドル(約5,200万円)のお値段。以前は25万ドル(約2,800万円)くらいかと思われていたのですが、予想はかなり甘かったようですね。

宇宙空間で無重力体験

宇宙旅行の全行程は90分間。ニューメキシコ州で乗り込んだギンギラギンの宇宙船「VSS imagine」は、飛行母船ジェット機「VMS Eve」で大空高く飛び立ち、途中で切り離されマッハ3の速度で宇宙空間へ飛び立ちます。そして無重力状態を楽しみ、地上に戻ってくるというものです。
