I am putting my name down for a place
Just need to raise the fee $200.million, guess this will take some effort but "Hey i about 4years to save up.
Maybe I can get some sponsorship as the 1st diabetic in space
A British company is offering seats to adventurers willing to go the extra mile on a historic journey to the moon.
The first 500,000-mile round trip in a converted Soviet-era space station could take place as early as 2015.
Art Dula, founder and chief executive of Isle of Man-based Excalibur Almaz, told a space tourism meeting in London: "We're ready to sell the tickets."
Only those with the "right stuff" should apply: besides the necessary level of physical and mental fitness, that includes a likely fare of around £100 million per person.
US space entrepreneur Mr Dula has acquired two Soviet "Almaz" space stations, designed for orbital spying operations.
Thrusters attached to the stations will convert them to long-distance spaceships.
Four re-entry capsules, or re-usable return vehicles (RRVs), will ferry three people at a time to the orbiting space station and return them to earth.
All the space vehicles - the cost of which is confidential - are housed in hangers on the Isle of Man. One of the RRVs is currently being exhibited outside the Queen Elizabeth II conference centre in Westminster, London.
If the bold plan succeeds, a private British space company will carry out the first manned moon mission since Apollo 17 in 1972.

Where do I sign up !
Chesty can do the pilot training bit, maybe in future we could open up a space restaurant and Franchise it to the Russian's and even a space Deli I bet the food would just fly off the shelves.
We could send Cook up for a look at the climate up there1
Our Heavenly Dishes are Out Of This World :)
Or I was thinking of having one commissioned in Savile Row,
But they say its got to be aluminium, and made by NASA.
and it will cost $10million.
We could have a special Blast Off menu and take a flask of Chicken soup to ward off any space Germs.
on the side of it. But it looks like they are giving it a new coat of white paint, so that's OK.
Apparently its sister ship, had to ditch in the Urals and was never seen again, Only some minor engine trouble though.So that's OK.
And they are filling Seats into it so we can sit down, and at no extra Cost! wow@7%
