Space Adventures, Ltd, the only company to have successfully launched private explorers to space, was founded in 1998 by a team of leading visionaries from the aerospace, adventure travel and entertainment industries. Headquartered in Vienna, Va with an office in Moscow, Space Adventures offers a variety of programs including the availability today for orbital spaceflight missions to the International Space Station, commercial circumlunar missions, Zero-Gravity and jet flights, cosmonaut training, spaceflight qualification programs and reservations on future suborbital spacecrafts.

Since founding, and having served as President and CEO of Space Adventures, Eric Anderson has led the world's premier space tourism company through several successful years and has sold more than $160 million (USD) in spaceflights, including those taken by the first and only five tourists who have actually flown to space: Dennis Tito, Mark Shuttleworth, Greg Olsen, Anousheh Ansari and Charles Simonyi.

Space Adventures' goal is to continue to open the space frontier to all citizens by building a series of successful, privately funded spaceflight missions. As the leading provider of space experiences, the company is in a unique position to provide countless new opportunities for exploration and enterprise over the coming years enabling the development of space resources for the benefit of humanity.
