Wanna to make a trip to space? Here is everything for you to know about it

SPACE TOURISM                           Kaarthik.A

         At last the era for the space tourism has begun, as we the people have almost achieved exploring everything in this world like oceans, islands, mountain peaks and all the remote parts of the world.  Apart from all these exploration, with the help of this present technology we were also able to make a trip to anywhere in this world. So sometimes we feel boring as we have explored everything in this world and even made it possible to make a trip to any remotest place of this world. So for the recent decades people started deriving ideas about the space tourism as a result some rockets making firms had come out to make their dreams true.

Virgin group ltd:

        Richard Branson is the founder of virgin group limited and are having influence over 400 companies as of now. Their main business is aviation, commercial spacecraft making, virgin galactic(space agency), films, jewellery, mobile phones, healthcare etc., and for the past few decades this firm had been working over a project called ‘SpaceShipTwo'  in an aspire to make non astronauts (common people) travel to suborbital zone of the space.     

Virgin Galactic:

        This is a private space agency  owned by Richard Branson who is a native from Great Britain and when he was 7, he was  having a dream in his mind to make a space venture. Then, after his success in his business  he developed his own space agency in a motive to make people travel to space. Then started working on his dream, he finally made an evolution in the space world by proposing the project SpaceShipTwo. In this mission the spacecraft will carry 6 people to the space to a height more than 100 km from the sea level. This spacecraft comprises  two important parts called white knight two( wk2) and Unit 2 respectively .                 

The white knight two:

        The wk2 is named as mother plane as it is the carrier of the Unit 2 and this wk2 seems to have a look like a combined form of 2 planes and the structure is In such a way where the either planes of wk2 shares a same wing and that is much longer than other wings in that spacecraft. The unit 2 is placed in that long wing where the two wk2 planes are attached.

The Unit 2:

       It is the spacecraft in which the passengers are seated. This is designed to fly at a height of  110km and over. After the detachment from the wk2 on reaching 16km high in space the spacecraft continues to fly 100 km further and stills there for 5 to 6 minutes. During this time passengers were also allowed to remove their seat belt to enjoy the zero gravity.

        Even a week before on July 11 2021 a group of eight astronauts including Richard Branson and two pilots successfully travelled to the specified destiny on space and returned safely. The cost per ticket is just $250,000 and all the early bird tickets for this year had sold out which is about 600 tickets. So if you are quite lucky even you can get one ticket in advance for next year.

       However same like Richard Branson amazon founder Jeff Bezos was also set fly on space by 20 July 2021. For more details about this view this article    https://informativearticless.blogspot.com/2021/07/jeff-in-state-of-estacy-all-you-need-to.html
