What is commercial human spaceflight: * Systems designed for passengers; * Developed by the private sector; * Using predominantly private funds; * Serving multiple markets, including government needs. There are two realms of activity: Suborbital - short flights above atmosphere, providing 3-5 minutes of weightlessness; and Orbital - reaching orbit around Earth, providing hours or days of weightlessness. The Personal Spaceflight Federation is the industry association of leading businesses and organizations working to make commercial human spaceflight a reality.
