EADS is an aerospace company that is Europe's largest builder of rockets and satellites, they are also the owner of Airbus. They are expected to announce plans to start a space tourism venture at the Paris air show next week. Their space tourism ship has been in development for several years.

It has been developing a space tourism project for seven years with the Phoenix, a reusable craft. The prototype is 23ft long, with a 12ft wing span and an aluminium structure weighing just over a ton. The prototype is believed to be one-sixth of the size of the planned vehicle.

Their current executive president, François Auque, stated that their ambitions in the space tourism market are primarily sub-orbital flights, perhaps expanding into orbital flights and eventually expediting trips to a space hotel.
