ROCKETPLANE WILL HOST FIRST MARRIAGE IN SPACE

Oklahoma City, OK - June 27, 2006 - Rocketplane® Limited, Inc., announced today that Cindy Cashman and Mitch Walling will be the first couple to be married in space aboard Rocketplane’s XP launch vehicle.

“I came up with the idea over a year ago,” said Cashman, entrepreneur and million selling author. “While I was meditating, an idea popped in my head to be the first person to be married in space, so I started taking action to make my dream a reality. What I needed first was the right man.”

Cashman went through an intense and exciting 12-month period of dating 33 different men. She found the right one, Mitch Walling, through an online dating service.

“I knew the day I met Cindy that I was going to marry her and I asked her 2 months later while going 70 mph on my motorcycle,” said Mitch, a pilot for American Eagle Airlines.

Cashman surprised Walling by announcing her dream for them to be the first couple married in space, in zero-gravity. “I was surprised - I never expected I would get married in space,” says Mitch.

Rocketplane plans to take the couple into space in 2008. To keep track of the first marriage ceremony in space history, visit www.firstspacewedding.com.

Cindy (www.cindycashman.com) is an international speaker and her books have been published in 15 countries. Her claim to fame is a book she marketed called “Everything Men Know About Women” written under the pseudonym of Dr. Alan Francis. It is 128 blank pages - and has sold over a million copies.

If you are interested in sponsorship opportunities or interviewing the couple, please contact Cindy Cashman: 512.261.5800 or cindy@cindycashman.com.
