Journey to the Edge of Space!
In the highest, fastest flying jet in the Russian Air Force! Year-round Departures Yuri Gagarin Cosmonaut Training Center Ride second-seat in the Foxbat Mig-25 to 80,000 feet - where 99% of Earths atmosphere is below you. From the cockpit of a MiG-25, your view directly overhead fades into the darkness of space. Below you, the curvature of Earth is awesomely apparent, and the horizon is 715 miles (1100 km) across. Flying at Mach 2.83, or one mile every two seconds, a trip in the MiG-25 "Foxbat" pulls a 4.5 G loop. 3-days $12,500 for Mig-25 flight - Air available from $1000 Non-flight participating guest: $350 with Air available from $1000 |

Dive to the Titanic!
Deep-Sea, Inner-Space Exploration RMS Titanic
July 2 or July 13, 2003
That's right. We invite you to dive to the most famous deep sea wreck in the history of the world. Sail with the exploration team on the Akademik Keldysh (As seen documented on Discovery Channel) and dive in one of two MIR submersibles capable of dives to 20,000 feet for scientific expedition tour of the RMS Titanic wreck.
Includes: accommodations aboard the Akademik Keldysh; one night accommodations in St. John's; orientation meeting; three meals daily (starting with breakfast on Day 2 and ending with breakfast onboard Keldysh on disembarkation day); activities within the program: lectures, briefings, slide/film shows; baggage handling, amenities/gifts, personal video.
$4950 to participate from the ship

Deep-Sea Thermal Vents
Departing August 29 or September 11 from Acapulco, Mexico
This summer, be one of the first non-scientists to dive to the bottom of the ocean and explore a truly alien hidden world. A world that has been called one of the greatest scientific discoveries of the 20th Century. Deep Ocean Expeditions sets sail for Nine North, a vent site located 500 miles off the coast of Mexico at nine degrees North latitude in the Pacific Ocean, 8,600 feet below the surface. Along with a team of deep-ocean ecologists and other scientists, we'll travel to these immense hydrothermal chimneys, some reaching five stories tall, where we'll find ourselves in a wonderland of alien marine life.
$4,950USD Non-divers. / $23,950USD MIR divers

Space Station Passenger Flight or Sub Orbital Space Flight

Wanted: Taller Space Travelers for Sub-Orbital Space Flight
And now, at the dawn of the third millennium, the final frontier is finally within our reach. We anticipate space tourism flights aboard one of many RLV choices to begin within the 2003-2005 timeframe.
Sub-orbital space flight is possible by collaboration with several independent corporations who are each developing their own version of a Reusable Launch Vehicle (RLV). At present, 7 different contractors are at various stages of research and design, seeking FAA approval. With these many options, we anticipate space tourism flights aboard these RLVs to begin within the 2003-2005 timeframe. All sub-orbital flights will be preceded by a detailed four-day flight preparation and training program. This highly focused and inspiring pre-flight program will familiarize you with the RLV flight program, critical vehicle systems, flight operations, zero-gravity training, in-flight gravity loads, and space flight safety procedures.
Reservations will be held for $10,000 down with intermediate payment schedule - Total fare: $98K
