TO GO WITH AFP STORY BY PATRICK RAHIR
(FILES) -- A file picture taken on October 17, 2011 in New Mexico shows a man inspecting the WhiteKnightTwo, which carries SpaceShipTwo, prior to a flight at Spaceport America, northeast of Truth Or Consequences. With spacecraft that carry tourists into orbit and connect Paris to New York in less than two hours, the new heroes of space travel are not astronauts but billionaire captains of industry. As well as their extreme wealth, this new breed of space pioneers has another thing in common -- they are all using private money to push the final frontier as government space programmes fall away.
