Richard Garriott is busy preparing for his journey to the International
House of Pancakes Space Station, and Space Adventures wants you to join him - kind of. The company is now offering a chance to undergo training as a back-up crew member on Garriott's mission. The individual selected will undergo rigorous training at Space Adventures' facility, at the end of which they will be certified as a fully-trained cosmonaut. Now the press release doesn't say that you will actually be joining Richard on his mission, but you will be an 'active participant' as well as being featured in a documentary TV series about the endeavor. The price tag? $3,000,000. Don't worry though, the fee can be credited towards the price of a future space flight mission. Thank goodness.
