Being a Future Astronaut

I'm going to be an astronaut (according to Virgin Galactic, that is)!

Yes, I admit, I signed up to get notices from Virgin Galactic even though I won't have $200,000 in the near future. Here's a letter they sent out a week ago:

Dear Future Astronaut,

Richard Branson and everyone on the Virgin Galactic team were delighted to receive your response to the Virgin Galactic website.

The support shown for this amazing project has been overwhelming and we will very shortly be in a position to discuss with you the next steps on your journey to become a Virgin Galactic Astronaut!

Over the next few days we will contact you again with more details, so there is no need for you to respond to this message.

Many thanks for your interest in Virgin Galactic.

Best wishes,

Stephen Attenborough
Head of Astronaut Liaison


I haven't heard anything more from them about details, but that's OK, because I can't give them money for a while anyway. But I certainly can dream, and plan.
