Send a holiday greeting to the 18 people on the International Space Station!!!

So spending Christmas 190 miles above Earth might be cool, but for the crew aboard the International Space Station they don't exactly get any Christmas cards or anything delievered to them by person, instead NASA has decided that everyone on planet Earth can send them a holiday greeting which will be beamed up to space (well sent electronically :D)

It's nearly here! :)

Virgin Galactic today launched WhiteKnightTwo at Mojave, CA! This jet will carry the passenger spaceship into space.

I have been keeping updated with Virgin Galactic as I really hope this project works. Richard Branson always pushes the evenlope and comes up with new ideas which is why he is a person I admire. Sadly I won't be able to go on Virgin Galactic for some time as it costs $200,000 for a ticket!!!

There is no date for the first space trip, but with the launch today of WhiteKnightTwo it won't be that long.
