Joanna Chojnacka from Lodz won one of the most famous and original contests in the history of the world, that is a space-flight.

It is likely that in two years she will be able to get her reward, which means getting into a spacecraft.

Works over the construction of the ship extend because many companies compete in this field. The one that wins is going to be awarded with hefty amount.

I know that there have been already testing flights of the spaceship built by an eccentric billionaire Richard Branson - said Joanna Chojnacka who has been waiting for seven years.

"Space Odyssey 2001" - it was the name of the contest organized seven years ago by the RMF (Radio Music Facts). The whole Poland was excited about the contest. Hundreds of thousand were willing to win the ticket into space. Through the dense sieve of selection went over only a few. The struggles lasted for two months. At the beginning they were asked to fill in a very simple mail survey with 5 questions concerning the Universe.

To the strict final round qualified only two persons Joanna and Mateusz from Poznan. They were fighting piloting an aircraft, They had to do very complicated evolutions like:loops or barrels. Mrs Joanna won.
