Space Adventures
Founded in 1998 Space Adventures has the honour to be the first company and pioneer of Space Tourism. The only company today that can say that it has taken and keeps on taking tourists to the International Space Station in co-operation with the Russian Federal Space Agency of the training centre Yuri Gagarin in the City of Stars.
Until today, the Space Tourists that have travelled to space with Space Adventures are:
Dennis Tito (28 Abril, 2001)
Mark Shuttlworht (25 Abril, 2002)
Gregory Olsen (1 Octubre, 2005)
Anousheh Ansari (18 Septiembre, 2006)
Their mission is not only to promote and make possible Space Tourism but also to explore and to develop the huge possibilities that Space can offer to humanity.
Today, they offer the possibility to make reservations for various products, for example: flights and accomodation in the International Space Station, flights around the moon, suborbital flights, zero gravity experiences, astronaut training programs, etc.
Their future suborbital flights will be made on board of the Space Ship Explorer, with Russian technology. With their propulsion rockets the passengers will go to an altitude of 100 km, remaining in a microgravity state for approximately 5 minutes before starting their return to earth.
To carry out suborbital flights they have under development two Spaceports, one in Singapore and the other in United Arab Emirates.
