Virgin Galactic Astronauts to Start Centrifuge Training, Wired

“The first 100 people to fly on Virgin Galactic’s sub-orbital space flights will be headed to Philadelphia to get their first taste of the G-forces of space launch and re-entry. The first Founder Astronauts will begin their two day experience, hosted at the National Training and Aerospace Research Center (NASTAR) center, in September and Virgin Galactic expects to accommodate all of the participating Founders by mid-October.”
