It'll get cheaper as more people do it.
The canary didn't die because this mine is dangerous, it died because it's lazy and wasn't raised with a proper work ethic.

Won't go into orbit, though. Another Branson marketing stunt.
Pessimism is the soft option.

Goes high enough for weightlessness though.

Well it's a marketing stunt, but it also seems to me a way to generate funds so that he can develop Virgin Galactic. Hopefully one day soon it WILL have orbital trips.
