    Virgin Galactic is on a billion-dollar quest to send paying travellers into space, and hundreds of customers have already signed up for the ride. Is this the final frontier of tourism, or a dangerous folly? http://nyer.cm/VvKUUM0 pic.twitter.com/CdNU0XT4N7

        great article, was always wondering who those ace pilots were and what they were really doing (since the slow progress @virgingalactic) ; this is almost like living with one of them (and the rest of the crew)

        You can get a heart attack while bowling. Depending on your commute you entrust your life to several poorly maintained machines and infrastructure to get work, but having the chance to be in space makes you think about the fragility of life? Are you kidding me? 👩🏾‍🚀
