Tom Cruise wants to fly into space

The famous actor with the series Mission: Impossible will spend $ 200,000 to go on a space trip.

Cruise revealed his intention to join the space tour when he went to Moscow, Russia to promote "Oblivion" science fiction film. The 50-year-old said he would spend $ 200,000 to buy a space ticket from Virgin Galactic, a private company in the US, Space reported.

"When I was a child, I always hoped that humans could go to other planets," Cruise said.

Some private companies in the US - like Mojave, Virgin Galactic - are building spacecraft capable of bringing people to orbit the earth. The spacecraft will fly around the planet for customers to experience the feeling of weightlessness for a few minutes and admire the ground.

If Cruise flew into space by private spacecraft, he wouldn't be the first movie star to do so. Amateur Ashton Kutcher booked a seat on Virgin Galactic's spacecraft. Kate Winslet, the lead actress in the "Titanic" super product also won a spot of Virgin Galactic, but she did not have to pay. Richard Branson, the founder, invited her to fly into space for free because she saved his mother in a fire. In addition to Kate and Winslet, nearly 500 others have booked with Virgin Galactic.

The Mission: Impossible series of Ethan Hunt does not rule out the possibility of living creatures out of the world."Even though I haven't met an alien creature, I still think we're not the only intelligent creature in the universe," Cruise commented.
