Based in the US city of California, Virgin Galactic did not specify the exact date of the space flight, but its technicians and engineers estimate that it would be before the end of 2022.

Virgin Galactic’s first commercial missions will depart from Spaceport America’s base in New Mexico where its thousand passengers will carry out a specific preparation for this space flight.

The $450,000 of the passage does not constitute any impediment because, as stated on the Digital Trends website, there were 600 millionaires who paid the $250,000 early presale phase which culminated eight years ago, in 2014, as part of an exclusive promotion.

“At Virgin Galactic we believe that space is transformative. We plan to have our first 1,000 travelers on board by the start of commercial service later this year, building a solid foundation as we begin regular operations and expand our fleet.” he claimed Michael ColglazierCEO of the company that competes, in the space tourism sector, with Blue Origin, the company of the founder of Amazon, Jeff Bezos.
