NEW YORK - The company that sends wealthy tourists to the International Space Station says that Google co-founder Sergey Brin has paid $5 million to reserve a seat on a future flight.
Space Adventures made the announcement in Manhattan today.
Company officials also say they have struck a deal with the Russian space agency to launch the first entirely private Soyuz flight to the space station in 2011. Two seats will be available.
The Virginia-based company has sent five tourists into space so far. The sixth customer is due to go up in October. He paid $35 million for the seat.
