This may be the first space tourism commercial, at least the first I have ever seen.
Directed by Patrick Foch this spot is for the EADS Astrium project, a space ship for trips into space. This company makes public these days a revolutionary new vehicle for space tourism in Paris. The business jet sized craft is planned to carry four passengers 100 km up into space.
Paris, 13 June 2007 – Astrium has unveiled a revolutionary new vehicle for space tourism at a special VIP event in Paris ahead of the Le Bourget Airshow. This business jet sized vehicle is designed to carry four passengers 100 km up into space giving more than three minutes of “zero G” or weightlessness. Guests at the Paris event were shown a full sized mock-up of the forward section of the revolutionary craft including its Marc Newson designed cabin.

Will probely cost 100.000$ for a trip that lasts 2~ houres?
Who knows Erl…but I believe the trip worth the money. There are many who dream about Moon or Mars.

CreaLog, you have a great blog. You are welcome to exchenge links, if you please.
Thanks for the comment.
Looks like bullshit to me, the fuselage is too small too hold enough fuel to get that many passengers into space. Look at Spaceship 1, X-15 etc, all those vehicles have 3x as much room for fuel as for people.
