Branson Portuguese Investment & Space Flights

A press conference in Lisbon Portugal saw Virgin boss Richard Branson indicate that discussions have taken place with national authorities on the possibility of building a space center in the country. Virgin Galactic is the name of Branson’s new space travel venture, and tickets are being sold at $200,000 per passenger. The first take off is scheduled for sometime in 2010 or 2011. The first flights will take place from a space center under construction in New Mexico, US, and any possible Portuguese space centere will be modeled on that one.

Richard Branson is now investing heavily in Portugal with a planned 20 new health clubs across the country and invest in renewable energies. These new projects could create thousands of new jobs when they are completed.
