If vrooming past the neighborhood screaming generally derogatory slogans is no more such a thrill for you, you might consider taking a joyride 38 miles above the earth, just to expand your fun-horizons of course. And that has been made possible by a two-seater spaceship smaller than a private jet that is capable of 25-minute space flight. Created by Xcor Aerospace, the Lynx Mark 1, which is also a green vehicle, is expected to be ready for its maiden test-flight by 2010, and if everything goes according to plan, it should also be capable of taking several flights into space every day. Much like your average thrill ride at the amusement park, only on a much, much bigger scale. The company, instead of selling tickets directly, will be licensing flight sales to space-adventure tourism companies. Watch the video after the jump for more info on the Lynx Mark 1.
