    According to the Daily Mail, Virgin’s Sir Richard Branson is planning to set yet another record — by becoming the first man to marry a couple in space (well, sub-orbital space — close enough).

    The billionaire’s Virgin Galactic is expected to begin weekly commercial flights next year (at a cost of $200,000 per person). In addition to the wedding, apparently another couple has booked a flight for their honeymoon (hmmm — flights only last 2-and-a-half hours).
