Space Tourists

Space tourists are private individuals who travel to space for leisure rather than scientific or commercial purposes. This trend has emerged as private companies, like SpaceX and Blue Origin, develop technology to make space travel accessible to non-professionals. Tourists typically experience weightlessness and view Earth from orbit. While currently costly, with trips priced in the hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars, advancements in space travel may eventually make it more affordable. This emerging industry represents a new frontier in adventure travel, blending technology, exploration, and personal experiences in space.
