Assuming you pass the application process, you’ll then be able to put down a $150,000 deposit on your ticket, of which $25,000 is non-refundable, according to the financial news network.

This isn’t the first Virgin Galactic tickets have been available. In August, the company opened ticket sales up to those who had already expressed interested in a seat onboard one of the company’s space planes. Close to 100 reservations have been sold since at $450,000 a piece. Prior to that, the Branson-front operation sold some 600 tickets over the previous decade, most in the $200,000 and $250,000.
