Space Cases

Bored of travel in this universe? Already been everywhere?

Competition in space travel is heating up between the really wealthy who have nothing to do. Richard Branson (Virgin founder) has launced Virgin Galactic (great name Rich), Jeff Bezos (founder of Amazon) is not far behind with Blue Origin LLC and Elon Musk (your name is just funny, Elon) (creator of Paypal) is pushing his own shuttle ride called SpaceX. Apparently all three bajillionaires are hoping to be first to launch their toy rockets into orbit and set the pricing standard.

Branson's already offering other rich people with nothing to do (customers) prepaid steals at $200,000 for about a seven minute ride.

Expect the others to come out with something faster and cheaper. Hell, soon enough you'll probably be able to hop on priceline and see Mars. We'll keep you posted...
