Have you seen the "news" about the 6th and 7th space tourists. It seems to be quite widespread, but call me an old cynic - there is nothing about it on the Space Adventures site, and it seems these two ladies have a very poorly populated social networking site which would benefit from some free publicity.<br /><br />They reckon their venture capital funders are stumping up for the flights... Hmm...<br /><br />Perhaps it was an April fool, but if it was, promoting their site was a very nice side effect!<br /><br />"Internet entrepreneurs Jennifer Bellofatto, 33, and Cherry Mendoza, 32, plan on becoming the sixth and seventh space tourists ever. Following in the footsteps of five private cosmonauts, these two full-time mothers will begin training in the fall of 2007."<br /><br />http://www.space-travel.com/reports/HerOrbitcom_Cofounders_Are_Headed_to_Space_999.html <br /><br />www.spacetoday.net/getarticle.php3?id=98141<br />
