Four friends are set to become astronauts for a day in the ultimate adventure competition to mark the launch of the newest Land Rover. <\/p>\n
The Virgin Galactic space flight will provide an unforgettable journey beyond the final frontier for four intrepid travellers following the debut of the New Discovery Sport. <\/p>\n
The 4 x 4 will be the replacement vehicle for the long-established Freelander, for years a staple part of the production line at Solihull. <\/p>\n
But the Freelander name has now reached the end of the road and the New Discovery Sport was unveiled to the world in a film shot at Spaceport America, New Mexico, the base for Virgin Galactics space flights. <\/p>\n
The flight prize was revealed in a film featuring a group of the worlds best-known adventurers and personalities, including Sir Richard Branson, Bear Grylls and Sir Ranulph Fiennes. <\/p>\n
Jaguar Land Rover says the competition is the first-ever opportunity for four friends to win a trip to space and experience out of seat zero gravity. <\/p>\n
Aspiring astronauts are being asked to produce a 30-second video or a still image demonstrating their spirit of adventure, and the four winners will be announced in December. <\/p>\n
Phil Popham, Jaguar Land Rover Marketing Director, said: Only Land Rover could offer this incredible opportunity, the chance to win the most spectacular group journey of a lifetime. <\/p>\n
Famed adventurer and Land Rover ambassador Bear Grylls, who will help the winning group prepare for their space voyage, said: This prize really is the ultimate adventure of a lifetime. <\/p>\n
As humans, it is in our DNA to go where people have never been before, and now four friends have the opportunity to do just that. <\/p>\n
