Capitalism's' latest frontier! -- Virgin Galactic

Space travel! Yes, that's right... SPACE TOURISM. With the X-Prize ready to be snatched, it looks like there is bound to be some exciting times ahead. I guess the space hotels are coming next. Here comes a whole new space-based industry.... Space hotels, space insurance, space gadgets & souvenirs, space airports (spaceports?).

In any case,
Virgin Galactic plans to have the first flights scheduled to take-off sometime in '07, sooooooo if you start saving today, you might be able to afford the proposed 200K$/flight price-tag.

I know its space we're talking about, but do the prices really have to be so far out of this world? I guess I'd better start investing in space-stocks to be able to afford it.

Live long and prosper!
