Virgin Galactic an amazing branch off of Richard Bransons Virgin group brand seeks to send civilians on tourist flights into outer space. Virgin Galactic is one among many companies making a push to take advantage of the final frontier as a major business.

I’ll never forget Richard Bransons entertaining and inspiring book Screw it, Lets do it. This book refueled my passion for space and business. I realized hey, maybe at least some of these sci fi movies could come to life. Along with telling stories about Bransons life, the book outlined that space travel was now possible.
Virgin Galactic owes its push into space from the Xprize cup winners Scaled Composites for creating Spaceship One. Spaceship One is going to be the ship that Virgin Galactic will use to send people into space.
Companies such as Virgin Galactic and Scaled Composites aren’t the only ones stepping up the game. California based SpaceX is driving forward in their rocket propelled Falcon spaceship in order to resupply the space station. With all these companies in the game maybe we truly have entered the era of Solar System colinization or…. Solarization.
