'NSYNC's Lance for final frontier

'NSYNC singer Lance Bass is in talks to take part in the greatest gig of all: a trip to space.

The 22-year-old is in discussions with space company MirCorp to join a flight from Russia to the International Space Station this coming November.

If Bass is successful, he will be the youngest person to ever go into space.

It is hoped that sponsorship and a TV deal will help with the estimated $20m costs of Bass' dream trip.

He will travel to Russia in May to begin six-months of pre-flight training.

His experiences will be the subject of a new TV show: 'Celebrity Mission: Lance Bass'.
