This morning I was reviewing some information about Virgin Galactic and space tourism in general to prepare for a TV interview. Wow! Am I really doing this? Sitting here boning up on traveling in Space? My father was a “firster”—first to have a TV, a Thunderbird, a picture window that would virtually disappear to allow fresh air to flow through our home—what would he say today? I’m not sure what his words would be, but I know what action he would take—he would have already purchased a seat on Virgin Galactic’s Spaceship 2! We’d be sitting around the dining room table and he would tell us, in very specific detail, all about the upcoming voyage. He might even pass around his Ipod loaded with the latest animation of a flight with Virgin Galactic. Yep–that’s what my dad would do…amazing! And now, I, his youngest, have the chance to help other firsters—cool!
