This week issue of # Newsweek magazine has a very interesting cover story on how some world-power countries are having a battle for “who’s going to the Moon”. An interesting story – below, you have the cover and the first page of the article in PDF files.
Reading this article I remembered about how some people can spend some 200,000 $ for a trip to the moon. Flights will be available with # Virgin Galactic, a company of # Sir Richard Branson’s Virgin Group.
Virgin Galactic plans to fly 500 passengers a year at about US$200,000 each, to an altitude of slightly over 100 km, with a total weightless time of 6 minutes.
You can # book here. They are asking JUST 20,000 $ as a deposit in advance! You just have to … fasten your seatbelt.
