For fans of all things astronomical, 2013 could mark the year when their dreams of travelling to space become a reality.

Pioneering companies championing 'space tourism' are planning to send their spaceships into the skies and fine tune their equipment over the next 12 months. 

Companies, including Sir Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic, are seeking to send ordinary members of the public into space for the very first time.
