transSpace everyday flies. Looks like stupid for the first sight , but it's not. Actually , it's not the first hot try to make such a kind of trip come true. But this one is going to be completely made , because this project has a purse of 1 000 000 000 euro and giants of airlines and airbus makers such as Astrium
Airbus - the main boeing "enemy"
Eurocopter - helicopters producy
Ariane - rockets
Eurofighter - you understand what it mean )
The conception of this buisness-jet-like vehicle was promoted on a VIP-party decided to Paris Air Show , which starts today , June 18th. The full-scale model and concept 3d images were shown there . It will fly away from simple aiports , no cosmoports will be needed. As plan reaches the 12 km altitude it turns on rocket engines and get the 60 km crossbar just in 80 seconds ! Then reactive engines turn off and vehicle reaches 100 km height simply amain. And this territoria isn't belong to Earth , it's Space.
Boatful will have to unstrap seatbelts o feel zero gravity effect for 5 minutes , it's amazing ! And the cost amazing too - 200 000 euro , but it's much cheaper than another kinds of that trips.
By the way , design of this plane in the pipeline by world famous designer Marc Newson , he made the design of another concept aircraft - Kelvin 40. google it , i'm too lazy to make a link :P
Illuminators considered to be 30% bigger than simple airbus' , and there will be 15 of them , just for 4 passengers . So areals will be oooverwhelmy beautiful i think. Millons of people want to watch their planet from space since they were young .
Design concept and EADS engeneers dwells will continue till rhe end of this year , and there will be two ways of using it. And the 2nd way isn't belong to the war-sphere . It's for always-in-a- hurry-buisenessmans . Due to "space method" time of travel will be decreased a lot . Project has a lot of investors , so the first flies probably be in a 2011-2012.
