Virgin Galactic is teaming up with Omaze for the chance to win a set on one of the company's first commercial voyages to space.

One winner and a guest can rocket more than 50 miles above Earth and experience zero gravity for a few minutes.

Anyone over the age of 18 can enter on omaze.com through August 31. Each $10 donation is equivalent to 100 entries.

The money supports the non-profit Space for Humanity, which aims to expand access to space.
