There are widely different opinions about the future of space tourism. Some people believe that space tourism will develop quickly and are suggesting that there will be orbiting hotels and tourists on the Moon in just a few years. Others believe that it will always remain expensive and very risky and so the extent of space tourism will be small in scale. It seems likely that the answer lies somewhere between these extreme viewpoints. Space travel by the general public seems likely to become a common occurrence in time, but this will not be overnight. In your lifetime, however, there is a very good chance that you will be able to take a safe and affordable trip into space. ---- Answer provided by [[Geoffrey I.
