The world is seen from above.

Sharon and Mark Hagle, who are set to become the first married space tourist couple later this week, are said to be considering flying.

The Florida pair, both 73 years old, will make their maiden voyage in one of Blue Origin's New Shepard Rocket, which shoots up about 60 miles above Earth's surface and lets passengers float in zero gravity for a few minutes before coming down.

We hope we're talking to each other when we come back to Earth, as the Hagle husband put it.

Sharon Hagle told BI that they can do it four times.

…And Beyond

The Hagles, who made their money from property development in the sunshine state, were directed to sign on for one of their friends' Virgin Galactic flights because of their desire to go where few Floridians have gone before. The report states that the pair are in talks with Musk and Space Perspectives.

The Hagles are going to Blue Origin's Texas base camp with their dog, but the pup won't be going up with them.

This is just another way for rich people to spend their money, but the couple are adorable, as described in the interview.

Sharon Hagle said that her husband had taken her out of her comfort zone.

Blue Origin passengers who are the first married couple to fly to space on a commercial rocket say they have plans to fly with other companies as well.

Man getting paid to fly rich guys to space says don't worry.
