Virgin Galactic is xem phim 19about to send three private passengers to space, including the first mother-daughter-duo and first Olympian to do so.
Richard Branson's spaceflight company is set to send 80-year-old Olympic slalom canoeist Jon Goodwin to space on Thursday, alongside wellness coach Keisha Schahaff and her daughter Anastatia Mayers, flying thanks to a competition run by nonprofit Space for Humanity. Goodwin bought his ticket soon after the launch of Virgin Galactic — so he could have paid anywhere between $250,000 and $450,000, which is what you'd pay today if you were so inclined.

There's a few more firsts for the Galactic 02 flight, too: hailing from from Antigua and Barbuda, Schahaff and Mayers will be the first Caribbean astronauts to go to space; 18-year-old Mayers will be the second youngest person after Oliver Daemen, who flew with Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin; and Goodwin will be the second person with Parkinson’s. But how do you watch it?
Galactic 02 has a flight window from Aug. 10 at 11 a.m. ET, launching from Spaceport America in New Mexico.
You can livestream the flight launch on VirginGalactic.com or on YouTube below.
With the crew and passengers ready for launch, Virgin Galactic uses one of its jet carrier aircrafts to take off from the Spaceport's runway. Once at release altitude, the VSS Unity uses its rocket engine to reach around 50 miles/80 kilometres above Earth. Then, those images you see of passengers floating about the craft? That's the five minutes of weightlessness passengers really pay that money for. After that the VSS Unity descends back to Earth for landing. The total flight time will be around 90 minutes.
