In another attempt to avoid his ex, Ashton Kutcher has signed up to be blasted into space… ouch!

Just kidding Demi, but seriously, Ashton has just signed up to take a trip to space on Richard Branson’s Virgin Galactic SpaceShipTwo.

Ashton could be up floating up in space as soon as the end of this year!

Branson took to his blog to make the announcement, “Great news today from our Astronaut Relations team at Virgin Galactic: our 500th future astronaut customer has just signed up! Even better news is that number 500 is Ashton Kutcher.”

So how much does a trip the final frontier cost?

The current price is somewhere around $200,000, it’s not horrible when you consider that you are going to space! A place that only highly trained astronauts and chimps have gone before.

“Ashton is joining a fast expanding group of true pioneers who are on their way to a life changing experience and a place in the history books,” Branson added.

This is going to be a shock to Ashton when he finds out the world really doesn’t revolve around him.
