NASA has approved the space journey of Nsync star lance Bass after he attended training sessions at the US Space Camp. Now all he has to do is supply the Russian Space Agency with the £13million fee to cover the costs of his training to date and the mission itself and the star could be heading for the International Space Station on 28 Oct - at 23 the youngest man in space ever. Bass is hoping a number of corporated and entertainment backers will come good with the money to make the mission happen. Both the Russian Space Agency and Nasa have agreed to put him through essential training, safety briefings and simulation classes despite the fact a financial deal with the Russians has yet to be sorted out.
