    It was every little boy's dream to be an astronaut growing up in my generation (X). Until the reality of it really sank in January 1986.

    Not at all. I would be a alien in space. I rather not be a alien.

    I was always one of the "I want to be an astronaut when I grow up" kids, but then I got older and realized there's a bit more involved with it than what I thought as a kid. :P

    I mean if we ever get to the point where the average person can just go to space on a whim without breaking the bank, then yeah. $250k is still pretty far beyond what I'd consider "affordable" though.

    Absolutely not. As fun as it would be to experience zero gravity for a bit, if I had 250k to burn on a day trip above the atmosphere I'd rather just give it to charity.
