Four chosen people are orbiting the earth after the first ever non-astronaut launch to space.

The private flight, which is a world first, was a success yesterday.

This mission has been billed as the start of a new era of space travel in which "average people" can explore space.

Florida-based space reporter Emilee Speck spoke to Corin Dann.
