Space Tourist Outbids NASA for Flight
ABC News has learned that singer Sarah Brightman, of 'Phantom of the Opera' fame, will be the next tourist in space. She outbid NASA for her seat on a Soyuz flight to the International Space Station. To maintain its presence in orbit when Soyuz seats are limited, NASA had to commit at least one of its astronauts to spending a year in space, instead of the six months they currently spend.
