Suborbital hops from Mojave and orbital stays aboard Nine Station. Same crew that flew the first 214 civilians past 100 kilometers.
The flights
A vertical climb past the Karman line, four minutes of true weightlessness, then a controlled descent back to the Mojave pad. Over before lunch.
Three days docked at Nine Station, 400 kilometers up. Sixteen sunrises a day, a full research module tour, and a return capsule splashdown off Baja.
The vehicle
A two stage vehicle built for a fifteen year service life. Nine One has flown 61 times since certification, with a booster recovery rate of 98 percent.
Cabin windows run floor to ceiling on the orbital variant, wider than any capsule flying today. Every seat gets a window.
Astronaut training
A full cardiovascular and vestibular workup at our Mojave clinic. Most passengers clear it in under two hours.
Two runs on the centrifuge to feel 4g, then a dry pool egress drill in full suit, timed and repeated until it is routine.
A pressurized suit built to your measurements, tested in the altitude chamber before it ever sees the pad.
One complete simulated ascent and descent with your actual mission crew, inside a mock cabin on hydraulic rails.
