Since I could comprehend my environment and beyond as a child, I have always yearned to travel to space. My mother (bless her) would confiscate my space books on the belief that it corrupted my thoughts on religion.
I know I still have a chance to travel even though I am middle aged, through the ingenious efforts of Sir Richard Branson and his commercial space venture ( www.virgingalactic.com ). Its all about the money.
