Also, I would loves to be in the space. I want to leave from Earth. I want to be in orbit. I can see explorer more planet & the moon. Do you know how much costly is that? I want go on the space shuttle to leave from the Earth.
I know that the Russians will fly space tourists to the ISS via their Soyuz spacecraft. I believe the cost is about USD $50,000. You have to go through some level of training. The biggest constraint is that you can't be taller than about 5'6" and fit into a Soyuz spacecraft.
I'm 6' 0" tall and I tried to fit into a Soyuz mock-up at Energia Corporation in Russia several years ago. If my butt was in the seat, my feet were cramped against the instrument panel. If my feet were on the floor, I was about 18" out the hatch. So, I'm not a candidate for travel to the ISS.
If you're "vertically challenged" and have the bucks, I'm confident the Russians would be willing to talk to you.
