Pount-To-Point Travel

A few European firms are looking at entering the human suborbital flight arena, though none are as far along as American companies like Virgin Galactic and XCOR.  One, Swiss Space Systems, is also taking a different approach.

S3 is developing a manned suborbital system, but it intends to focus on serving the research market, not space tourism.  It also wants to develop point-to-point travel on Earth, allowing people to fly anywhere on Earth within an hour.
