I don't know if this has been posted before, as the video is a bit old. But awesome never gets old. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=XBlifr6EQNU
Go supersonic, float in weightlessness, see curvature of the Earth, wear spiffy red and white space suit...
I want to GO GALACTIC!

Hmm, do they get to keep the suits afterwards?

Yeah, I was wondering that, too. That could be a cool superhero costume.
Come on, bite me, you stupid radioactive spider!

Too bad there's not a big "V" on the suit, so that they could call themselves
Virgin Man/Woman!!!

..okay maybe that's not cool.

If a whole group got caught in a cosmic ray storm, they could be Team Galactic.

Branson should use this as a selling feature.

VIRGIN GALACTIC
"You could come back a superhero!"

I suppose I ought to point out that the video you've posted has been available on the Virgin Galactic website for a good couple of years now.

There's loads of other content there as well as more videos. It's well worth a look.

I wonder what Branson would do with a team of superheroes?

^ He'd give 'em a record contract.

Every time I see that video, I can't help but think, "If that ain't something that a Bond villian would have, I don't know what is."
