An interesting note from the BBC CEFAX space pages.
(Page 265 for anyone who can get BBC2)
 
The # character is the pound sterling symbol.
 
------------------------------------------
 
The Soviet travel agency, Intourist,
has said that dbi@999 per person
they could arrange a week's package
"space" trip to Russia next summer.
 
The trip would include the Cosmonaut
training centre at Star City and
Soviet Mission Control at Kaliningrad,
both just outside Moscow.
 
The huge water tank where cosmonauts
train for walking in space and several
space museums would also be seen.
 
It seems that a package to the Baikonur
cosmodrome is in the planning stage.
 
------------------------------------------
 
If anyone is interested, I'll post more details if
and when they appear.
	Bob.
