Sir Richard Branson has dedicated the launchpad for his space tourism venture in the New Mexico desert - with his usual eye for a photo opportunity.
The British billionaire abseiled down the side of the world's first built-from-scratch commercial spaceport, swigging from a bottle of champagne.
New Mexico Governor Susana Martinez and astronaut Buzz Aldrin also attended.
The 2.5-hour flights will offer five minutes of weightlessness and cost $200,000 (£127,000).

I'll pass at those prices..

Yes it is a bit pricey for me but perhaps the owner of this forum can buy you a ticket.

If I had the cash I'd certainly give it a go
