Ever wanted to take a quick trip up to the moon? Maybe a jaunt around the solar system? Well, we might be closer to realizing your dreams than you may think!
It’s been over 50 years since mankind first set foot on the moon, but we haven’t exactly seen as much space exploration since then as we may like. So what’s been holding us back so far, and why does it seem like all of a sudden space travel is on the table?
In this video we’ll explain what exactly space tourism is, the history of space travel, and the technological advancements that have been made that have revolutionized the industry. Then, we’ll explore some of the travel packages that companies like Virgin Galactic are already offering, and the (crazy high) costs linked to them. Finally, we’ll tell it to you straight regarding what some of the hurdles the space tourism industry faces, including potential legislation and safety issues. But don’t get it twisted, space tourism is on the horizon, and we’ll likely see it within our lifetimes (if not within the next couple of years!). So buckle your seatbelts, cause this baby’s taking off!
