Ever want to give space travel a try, but just didn’t have the drive or energy required to become an astronaught? Well you just might be in luck. The first commercial spaceport will begin construction in the first quarter of 2009 and is expected to be ready by 2010. Too bad a quick trip costs more than some houses.

$200,000 dollars and you get to be in space for 3-4 mins? Well that sucks! Hopefully that price will come down after a while, because that’s just plain ridiculous! …Although I should admit if I had 200 grand to blow I might actually consider it.
