From Paint to Space: Organised by 21st Century Leaders and Sir Richard Branson, Founder of Virgin, sold at the 3rd Reach Out To Asia Gala Dinner
Auction Lot: A founder member ticket on board a Virgin Galactic flight to space
Organised by 21st Century Leaders and Sir Richard Branson, Founder of Virgin
 | Virgin Galactic is the world’s first spaceline and this ticket gives you the groundbreaking opportunity to become one of the world’s first ever non-professional astronauts. After two or three fabulous days of preparing with your crew, there will be 3 days of pre-flight preparation, bonding and training onsite at the spaceport. The pilots will glide the spaceship at just over stall speed to allow maximum time, for the new astronauts to enjoy the view and prepare for the celebrations. Zero G and view to take your breath away.From the spaceport to 50,000ft, you will be in the spacecraft attached to the mother ship, a specially designed jet carrier aircraft. It will be a time of anticipation and perhaps contemplation of what’s ahead. You will know the rest of your crew and enjoy the confidence that has come from preparing with them and the highly trained pilots for the trip you are about to take together. This is something that has remained completely out of reach to millions who dream of crossing the final frontier, and now it is your chance to be one of the first to fly to space. |
