Virgin Galactic is the space flight company started by Richard Branson. The company announced pilot proficiency training flights are taking place this week in New Mexico. Tickets for future Virgin Galactic flights are going for $200,000 a piece. So far about a dozen celebrities have purchased tickets for the experience including: Justin Bieber, Kate Winslet, Rihanna, Brad Pitt. Lady Gaga, Leonardo DiCaprio, Angelina Jolie, Russel Brad, Katy Perry, Tom Hanks and Elon Musk. Elton bought his ticket while he was working with Virgin Galactic. He now has his own space flight company Space X. It's pretty interesting to see exes Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have both purchased tickets to go into space. They're still fighting in court over custody of their kids. Maybe the judge should make them go into space together. They might get along better when they land!
