First off Virgin Galactic have now built their first "spaceport" in New Mexico (in the dessert o course, they dont want houses on fire) as Virgin Galactic aree set out be become the first ever and they hope the only Outer-Space Holiday provider. VMS Enterprise (wonder where they got that name from?) is going to be ready in a few months maybe a year or two and it will fly off into space, probably to the moon as it costs £128,000 to get on it. Wow Richard Branson is going to make ALOT of money because they are already 400 wannabe astronauts applying to get on to it.
Now to Virgin Oceanic they have now built a 1 man sub with wat look like to be 2 water jets attached to 2 wings which is designed to go down about 11,000 metres under the major seas of the world. Richard Branson has said it is out to explre the 5 seas of the world, even though there's 7 and not 5?. Now if you want to know how deep 11,000 metres is the HMS Titanic (or to you and me the supposedly unsinkable Titanic) only sank about 3,500 metres. And if thats not good enough the average room heait is about 2.2 metres its 5000 of the average room bolted together ontop of eachother. When you look down inside that, that's how deep it is.
Heres an video describing it:
That's it for now, but keep on looking at this blog and our F1 Live blog. More updates as we receive them.
