HOLIDAYS IN SPACE... BY 2050
Do you want to holiday in space?
Travelling to space used to be something that only nations with multibillion budgets could do. But now anyone can live the dream if they have enough courage to travel. This is according to a report on the future of travel out yesterday.
A couple of years ago the dream of comercial space travel was out of reach, until a host of entrepreneurs announced plans of putting paying passengers on a variety of contraptions.
By 2050 however, adventurous tourists will be able to take their pursuit of the intrepid holiday a step further by becoming a 'touronaut'.
The world travel 2050 report indicates that the average house price in Great Britain will be £2million in 2050 and that an orbital space holiday will cost about a thrid of that.
Joshua Murray, a student at SEEVIC College in Essex says that he thinks holidays to space would be a good idea because it would be a change from the busy Costa Del Sol beaches.
