The Seattle-based start up envisions a Spaceflight Gateway and Astronaut Training Complex for new spaceflight participants and their families. One of the founders, Jason Andrews was quoted in Space News stating “There are now four new human-capable vehicles going into operation this year. The 2020s will be the decade of commercial human spaceflight.”
Virgin Galactic and others will host their own training programs but Orbite will help grease the skids so to speak, by offering first time space travelers physical, psychological and other training to enhance their spaceflight experience.
