``It's just sort of the feeling of freedom, that you are your own satellite,'' said former NASA spacewalker Kathy Thornton, who is on the firm's advisory board. ``There are people who collect material things. There are people who collect experiences. For the people who collect experiences, yeah it is'' worth it.
