Up To The Lower Space
“When I said to my mum we are going to fly to the space she only asked a question ‘when?’” says Igor Kutsenko, the president of an advertising agency Orange. He with his parents and other 9 Russians have booked seats on the nearest flights by the first private rocket glider SpaceShipOne intended for suborbital space flights. Space flights with a labor union vouchers used to be promised by Sergei Korolev. Now the Virgin Galactic company offers the tours to the orbit with the price of $200,000.
