Space Tourism

Space tourism refers to the commercial activity of traveling to outer space for recreational, leisure, or adventure purposes. It involves private individuals or groups paying for the experience of going beyond the Earth's atmosphere, often to participate in activities such as weightlessness experiences, viewing Earth from space, or even short trips to orbit. This industry has emerged as advancements in technology and spacecraft design have made space travel more feasible for non-professionals. Space tourism can encompass a variety of experiences, including suborbital flights, orbital stays on spacecraft or space stations, and potential future excursions to lunar or Martian destinations. The significance of space tourism lies in its potential to make space more accessible to the general public and to inspire interest in space exploration and science.
