    Definitely, I'd say the experience would be out of this world.

    I suffer from motion sickness so no weightlessness for me.
    Ditto if they ever have suborbital aircraft for commercial aviation.

    I'd like to take a dump in space.

    How does that work?

    Dunno, but no-one could hear them scream.

    If I lived in Beijing I could say yes and only mean that I'd go to the countryside.

    Na I'd miss the porn on Earth. F*ck that.

    Eh? Didn't you ever see that Star Trek episode with Jim Kirk banging that cracking green bird? Even William Riker and Picard got it on with the odd Klingon, etc.

    Leave your inhibitions back in the suburbs, baby!:cool: There's an entire universe of space porn out there for ya!

    On the ISS only the Russians have guns, you know for the bears and wolves.

    One of my previous colleagues went into space as a spaceshuttle payload specialist.
    It looked super cool on his resume :)

    I wouldn't fancy a whole three months of that. It would have to be feb-april for starters.
