New Landscape of Space Exploration: Spacefaring Nation to Nation of Spacefarers Citizen Astronauts Since 2001, seven individuals have purchased eight orbital flights (one passenger flew twice) for approximately $20 to $35 million per flight. More and more individuals want, and now are able, to go into space themselves, be it on a suborbital flight, high altitude balloon, or an orbital flight. Three companies are developing suborbital vehicles to carry humans to the edge of space, Blue Origin, Virgin Galactic, and XCOR. Virgin Galactic and XCOR have announced that they have over 850 existing reservations for trips into suborbital space, which means over the next several years, private suborbital flight providers might almost double the number of humans flown in space (currently just over 500). Their clientele includes wealthy individuals, sponsored researchers, celebrities, and space enthusiasts who have spent a substantial fraction of their wealth to realize long-held dreams of spaceflight. More than 10 celebrities hope to be one of the first to fly; those who have purchased tickets include Angelina Jolie, Lady Gaga, Brad Pitt, and Tom Hanks. The first paying customers are expected to be flying by the end of 2014. Since suborbital vehicles are funded by private companies rather than governments, the companies are seeking out public relations and advertising opportunities to help their business case. NBC television is working with Virgin Galactic to produce a reality television show on contestants for a suborbital flight. XCOR sold 22 flights for a men's cologne campaign, that includes advertising and contests to win a flight. In a survey of ultra-wealthy individuals, seeing the curvature of the Earth from space was cited as the number one reason for wanting to go on a space flight. Paragon Space Development Corporation Scaled Composites conducted two successful powered test flights of SpaceShipTwo in 2013. along with other companies are developing ultra-high altitude balloons that will allow individuals to see the curvature of the earth, a view previously only seen by astronauts and pilots flying at very high altitudes. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has given a preliminary classification approval to World View that the balloon's capsule will qualify as a space launch vehicle under its guidelines. Those guidelines govern suborbital rockets and launch vehicles. The possibility of space as a place for sports and adventure came a little closer in 2012 when 23 Image: MarsScientific.com & Clay Center ObservatoryPDF Image | Emerging Space
