We've alll heard about Richard Branson's next big plan to offer ttrips to outer space but who would actually do it? It's a pretty intense thing, organising a space trip and can also be dangerous. Just say you won a competition to fly to space, would you accept it? I really don'[t know if I would. I'd be so curious but I think I might be too scared! It would also depend on what stage of my life I was at too. Like if I had young children I wouldn't do it incase the worst happened. But if I was say, 45-50 and had sort of achieved everything I wanted to I might just take the opportunity!

i would take it in a heartbeat. going to space is something i have always wanted to do. when i was younger the only thing i really wanted was to go to space camp. i would take it in a second. no hesitation.

Actually I would quite like to go for a holiday in space. I don't think I would be scared, as they wouldn't offer it to tourists unless it was pefectly safe. It if meant I had to do all that training though, I wouldn't bother. Of course, the expense would prhibit me from ever considering it.

I wouldn't go. Not because I would be scared, because I wouldn't want to pee in that jump suit. : )
