We're talking limited orbit space travel here folks - nothing yet has been mentioned of time travel ... unless of course they find themselves beyond an event horizon and drawn into the crushing gravity well of a singularity - a wormhole a la Crichton in Farscape would also be pretty spectacular and worth the ticket price .
 

One sheep to rule them all ...

Re: Virgin Atlantic's Spaceliner

Is there anyone on the airline scene that is trying to push the envelope like Branson is? Is there anyone who can be considered a close rival? It would be cool if there was; then these guys could be the Trippe and Hughes of the commercial space race, and make some REALLY neat things happen!
