World's first commercial spaceport opens runway.

Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic has opened the first commercial spacecraft runway at its Spaceport America facility near Las Cruces, New Mexico.  The spaceport will offer three-hour tours of space that include five minutes of weightlessness, for about $200,000.  (They should probably turn away any passengers with luggage.)
