Hey, it's Kim Commando today, your daily podcast to keep you up to date with all things digital and beyond.

And I'd love to have you be a part of our podcast.

You can make an appointment to speak with me.

Just head over to commando.com.

And on the top right, there's a button that says email Kim, fill that out.

And that's it.

So have you ever wanted to go to space?

Like, I go to deep space, like, see if there's other galaxies and stuff, but that tourism

space travel where you just float in the air for like 10 minutes and then come back down?

No, I'm not interested.

I don't even think it's 10 minutes for a quarter of a million dollars.

30 seconds or whatever. Well think it's 10 minutes for a quarter of a million dollars. 30 seconds or whatever.

Well, the reason why I bring that us up, Sir Richard Branson, you know who he is.

Virgin Atlantic.

Yes, Virgin Atlantic.

He says that he's going to have the first balloon flight into space next year. The balloon is nearly as tall as the Eiffel Tower.

It's going to float 20 miles above the Earth's surface. And he said it's for like regular folks,

not like billionaires. A balloon, like a hot air balloon? Like you could fall out of space and hit the ground?

Well, I'm sure you have like a parachute on or something like that.

I mean, and considering like it's quarter of a million dollars to go into like the rocket, on the balloon, it's like half the price.

It's $125,000.

I'll pass.
