You'll probably never experience flying in space during your lifetime but with VR you can at least simulate the experience.

Elite: Dangerous in VR delivers a sense of immersion in space that can't be matched by a 2D screen with a mouse and keyboard.

Played in VR with a VR headset you have a 360 degree view of the cockpit of your starship.
