Paris Hilton may soon be finding out for herself if the stars are really blind or not by becoming the first celeb to take a trip into outer space.

The hotel heiress is apparently playing around with the idea as a part of her reality TV show 'The Simple Life'.

And it seems that Paris has got her mind so set on going where no other celeb has gone before, that she is reportedly determined to go through the thorough training required to become a fully-fledged astronaut.

A source revealed that the 'Stars are Blind' singer is looking forward to all the publicity that would come with her new project.

"She would love to be followed by cameras going through all the training before ultimately blasting off to become the world's first celebrity astronaut," The Sun quoted the source, as saying.

However, the Hilton hotel babe would probably have to make the trip sans former best pal and her 'Simple Life' co-star Nicole Richie who is mortally scared of flying.

"Nicole is out. There's no amount of money that would tempt her to do that. She even hates flying on jets," the source added.
