A group of MTA Travel agents attending the Virtuoso Travel Mart in Las Vegas were the only Aussies attending the Virgin Galactic ASA Agency Forum, which included talks from a VG test pilot, an aircraft interior designer and Wally Funk. In 1961, at the age of 21 Funk volunteered and was selected as 1 of 25 people for the ‘Women in Space’ Program run by NASA.
