A trip to space

I read an article today about tourism in space. I knew that this was possible because of the space trip of Guy Laliberté a few years ago, but I was surprised to learn that six firms in California were working on a spaceship to bring people to space for a short time. The price range varies between $100,000 to $250,000 per ticket for now, and they hope to reduce it to $30,000 to $40,000 in a few years.

I don't know if I would spend that much money for 45 minutes in space ( even if I wanted, I couldn't haha ), but I hope that people will do it. Because, if this technology's development is a success, based on the concept explained, it would be possible in the future to travel from Montreal to Tokyo in 45 minutes instead of 15 hours!!! This is amazing news for any traveller, even if we probably won't see it happening, let's hope our children will have this privilege.
