"Incredible Adventures shares our vision," said MirCorp President Jeffrey Manber. "Our companies share in the belief that everyone should have the right to explore new worlds, face new challenges and test their personal limits. We see working together as the fastest way to bring space tourism to the general public."

The companies will jointly market a series of space adventures designed to prepare participants for the ultimate challenge.a Soyuz flight to the space station. Activities available now include the zero-gravity flights, Star City cosmonaut training and Russian MiG-25 flights to the edge of space that Incredible Adventures has offered since 1993. Pricing for the cosmonaut adventures are expected to range from $2950 to $20 million.

"We're very excited to have MirCorp as our partner," said Incredible Adventures Chairman Norman Fast. "They are a company with solid leadership and the proven ability to deliver what they promise."

"In the past eight years, we've introduced a lot of incredible adventures, everything from jet fighter vacations to fantasy spy camps. But, the chance to train for a real Soyuz space flight is the most incredible adventure of all."

As part of the joint venture agreement signed by the companies, MirCorp has named Incredible Adventures its exclusive provider of civilian MiG and zero-gravity flights in Moscow, as well as its preferred provider of ground services within Russia.
