You really get the sense from Richard Branson that he is just a big kid whenever he says the words 'spaceship', but when you're a billionaire entrepreneur it comes with its perks. On Monday morning, Virgin Galactic's SpaceShipTwo made it's first supersonic flight, paving the way for the first tourist flights to space with Branson hoping for the first full flight into space by the end of the year.  More than 500 people have already paid the $200,000 ticket price to be one of the first on the planes when they eventually go into service.
