Anyone who has enough money, will be able to go in 2011 on Russian Soyuz on vacation in space. Soyuz, built specially for tourists, along with the pilot's seat will have two more passengers. Multimillioner and one of the search engine Google founders Sergey Brin already guaranteed a space tour, writes Die Welt. The American company Space Adventures, along with the Russian Space Agency plans to early next decade, the first purely private space flight. "Union" will be built specifically for tourists and for all parameters, up to the title, will differ from transport ships used to supply the International Space Station, said the company, located in the U.S. state of Virginia. One of the two passenger seats already booked Sergey Brin, multimillioner and one of the creators of the search engine Google, paying the deposit of $ 5 million dollars. Until now, tourists went into space only in the professional crews of astronauts. The situation changed with the first start exclusively tourist Soyuz. " "I firmly believe in studying and commercial use of space" - a businessman said Breen. The idea to open a road in the universe to ordinary person is not new. The first tourist, went on board the Soyuz to the space was Dennis Tito. As part of the mission to service the ISS an American citizen in 2001 visited the space station. Needless to say, this tour was also organised by Space Adventures. For an American went into space four tourists: Mark Shattlvort (2002), Greg Olsen (2005), Anousheh Ansari (2006) and Charles Simonyi (2007). For an unusual excursion they had paid approximately $ 20 million each. The growing interest in space tourism seems the European Space Agency (ESA) has several unpleasant. In the area of private space flight there is a huge demand pending. After the first European flew into space with the Americans, private economy has achieved what was unable to ESA for more than 30 years of its existence - to send into space at the European Europeans same boat. "We are very interested in allowing fly into space as many people as possible - said recently the radio station Deutschlandfunk Sakott Daniel, director of ESA manned space flight on. - In this space tourism - a good tool for enrichment." When it comes to business, Americans have always been first. "Old Light must hurry so as not to become dependent on private American economy," - said Sakott. Nevertheless, he also notes the advantages of Europeans. "The possibility of cooperation with us is our experience to prepare people for work in conditions of weightlessness and continuous monitoring their health. This experience, coupled with the organization of supply, we could share with private firms." The link between scientific research and tourism there is also in the creation of space infrastructure. The space station could be used by scientists as well as tourists. On board the first tourist spacecraft still have one free space. "Buyer for the second ticket as yet no"
