      I would love to go to space but unfortunately I’ve never been! Only very few people get the opportunity to become astronauts, and you have to be a special type of person- strong, calm, logical, physically fit, mentally stable… it’s tough! One thing I can definitely do though is experience weightlessness. You go on a special flight which climbs high into the atmosphere and then falls for a while- when you and the plane are falling, you are feel weightless. It’s about £5k to do though so I’ll need to save up!

      Hell no! I get travel sick trying to read on a plane, I think a rocket would kill me!

      I would love too, I imagine it must be a mind-blowing experience, that huge space, the starts and planets, quietness and absolutely no gravity. But unfortunately I think during my lifetime I won’t be able to afford such a trip 🙂
