Virgin Galactic is all set to offer space flight tickets to the public for a whopping $450,000 per ticket. Potential travelers are expected to lay down a deposit of $150,000 to confirm their spot for the first set of commercial space flights scheduled for the end of 2022. Reports suggest that each trip is to last close to 90 minutes, and if everything goes to schedule, Virgin Galactic will beat Blue Origin and Elon Musk’s SpaceX to the finish line, making them the first commercial space flight firm in history.
