Space Tourism


You can visit the space, 
                                                Give it a while and you will, you can do it right now without waiting a couple of years before the prices go down but it will cost you around $20-30 million to chill at the International Space Station and a sub-orbital spaceflight from Virgin Galactic would cost you $200,000, but people who work in  that field predict that in few years medium-class people will be able to do it for just $20,000 or maybe $10,000.


One of the biggest Companies that offer space tourism like Orbital Technologies will get you the best deals for spending short vacations in a Space hotel, Guests of the space hotel will get an unparalleled view of Earth from 217 miles in the air, the space hotel can house up to seven guests in four cabins, and getting to the space hotel will set you back over $800,000, and five-night stay is an additional $165,000.


The commercial Space Station will be more comfortable than the International Space Station, with showers instead of sponge baths and gourmet prepared meals instead of space ice cream.
Visitors have the options of sleeping in either horizontal or vertical sleeping bags, though in zero gravity, we have to imagine they'd be equally comfortable.

After space tourist season is over, the station can be used by astronauts for missions.
The Commercial Space Station is set up to open for business in 2016, so you still have a few years to save up for a trip.

The trips details are published on Popular Science.com
