Ashton Kutcher reveals how Mila Kunis talked him out of joining next Virgin Galactic space flight
The first commercial flights by Virgin Galactic are expected to launch in 2022
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Actor Ashton Kutcher revealed his wife Mila Kunis is the reason he hasn't traveled to space.
Kutcher had a ticket to fly to space aboard Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic ship, but Kunis advised it might not be a "smart family decision."
"When I got married and had kids, my wife basically encouraged that it was not a smart family decision to be heading into space when we have young children, so I ended up selling my ticket back to Virgin Galactic," Kutcher told Cheddar News in an interview Wednesday. "I was supposed to be on the next flight, but I will not be on the next flight."
