He provides moon travel services
Adventurers will have the opportunity to set foot on the moon in 2015 if they can spend more than $ 150 million on a flight.
Excalibur Almaz, a company on the Isle of Man of England, has just announced the plan to make the first flight to the moon after Apollo 17 spacecraft landed 'sister Hang' in 1972. The company bought 6 phi boats and some space stations from NPO Mashinostroyenia a space technology company in Russia. Then they installed modern equipment inside the spacecraft.
Art Dula, founder of Excalibur Almaz in 2005, revealed that the test flight will take place in 2014 and the company's first spacecraft will take off in 2015. The spacecraft will not land on the moon but only fly over this celestial surface at a distance of 1,000km.
Each ship of Excalibur Almaz is capable of carrying up to three people.
All individuals can join Excalibur Almaz's flight if they can afford £ 100 million (equivalent to more than 157 million USD). However, visitors will have to control the spacecraft themselves, because no astronaut accompanies them on the flight.
'It is not a space trip, but a real scientific expedition. The first person to join the flight will occupy a position in the history books , ' Dula said.
Each of Excalibur Almaz's spacecraft can accommodate up to three people. Visitors will learn how to control the spacecraft for a year before leaving Earth from a space airport in Kazakhstan. After leaving the globe, the spacecraft will connect to a company's space station and then activate the engines to move around in the universe.
'Because the engines have much weaker propulsion than rockets, the speed of the ship will be low. That means that the flight - counting from the time the train departs to return - will last up to 4 months , 'Dula explained.
Excalibur Almaz's website announces that each of their space stations has a volume of 90m 3 - big enough for the visitors to live comfortably for several months. All stations have emergency exit systems.
Dula had no intention of recruiting a professional astronaut to pilot a spacecraft in the future.
'The new flight type is completely different from the previous flights that the human race once witnessed. So the presence of a professional astronaut, who has the ability to make decisions in half a second, does not bring any advantage. With our spacecraft, visitors can sleep and make a decision , 'Dula said.
