We had a hunch that Virgin would soon allow its most loyal patrons to exchange frequent flyer points for trips to space, and sure enough, Virgin Galactic has formally introduced said offer. If you're somehow able to amass an astounding 25 million Virgin Blue points (before the offer becomes null and void, you perish or the galaxy is evaporated, that is), you can trade 'em in for a trip to space. Oh, and if you have no interest in ever looking like that chap pictured above, Virgin will also let you exchange them for a pair of Alfa Romeo vehicles, the chance to explore the planet "how you see fit" or a $170,000 shopping spree. Better get to flyin', eh?
