The Complete Sub-Orbital Space Flight Training - 2 Day -
"VG 'Founder' Experience" US $5,000
Are you ready for space? If you are seriously considering a Sub-Orbital Space Flight with Virgin Galactic, NASTAR Center will help you get ready.
Walk in the shoes of Virgin Galactic's Founders, the first 100 private space travelers, during this 2-day, event filled program that includes classroom sessions and space flight training to properly prepare you for the most unique and thrilling experience of your life. Using the same Space Training Simulator (STS-400) that trained the VG Founders, you will learn first hand what is really involved in a sub-orbital space flight. In the classroom, you will become immersed in the dynamics of space travel, the effects of G tolerance factors including G-LOC (G-Induced Loss of Consciousness), and learn comprehensive techniques used by both pilots and astronauts alike to handle the G-forces that will affect your physiology during the extremes of sub-orbital flight.
With twice the flight time and twice the G-forces than the 1-Day Program, this comprehensive training program includes four intense and exhilarating flights on the STS-400. You will have a personalized flight experience that will leave you knowledgeable and confident to face the real thing, with memories that will last a lifetime.
