Barbara M. Barrett, So-Yeon Yi
I ran out of space in the title page of "The Space Tourist's Handbook," so when I saw an opportunity for Barbara M. Barrett - yes, the former ambassador, who was the backup to Guy Laliberte - to sign my book, I picked this page. I liked the sentiment: "A trip to outer space is like no vacation you've ever experienced ... and now such a trip is available to the general public."
And since I started this page, I thought it a good place to get signed by So-yeon Yi. Yi, although not a spaceflight participant through Space Adventures, flew on board the Soyuz spacecraft through a South Korean government initiative, paying about USD $26 million to do so. Yi was originally the alternate (to San Ko) but switched placed due to allegations of several violations of training protocol by Ko.
