That would be a heck of a trip. Hopefully the price will come down eventually and allow prols like me to go :)
Well, I’ve been around a bit but not into space (yet!). We found an attraction in a shopping mall in Hong Kong that looked like it would be fun. (I’m sure they must offer this elsewhere too, although I’ve never seen it.)
You got harnessed in to a contraption of pulleys and wires that would let you experience weightlessness and do a ‘space walk’ of a few metres. I thought that this would be great and went for it.
I had (stupidly) thought that I’d bounce my way easily to the end, but it wasn’t like that at all. Being less than eight stone I couldn’t get any traction at all and spent most of the time floundering about – doing a sort of doggy paddle in mid-air. Then I had a fit of the giggles which didn’t help. It was fun. Try it if you get the chance.
