I imagine Rutan or someone else will be the only way it's even reasonably affordable (still to the very rich) ... I don't have a spare $20 million (this month) or I'd go ... hehe ...

Rutan's first ship is designed to go up and down, 15 minutes in zero-G at most.. it won't cost anything near $20M for a ride... probably more like $500K. reasonable huh? =o)

It will, of course, be the Jewish Space Agency.
