When will the first space hotel welcome guests?

American startup "Crossing Orion" plans to launch the space hotel-Aurora Space Station in 221. The space station will adopt modular design, each module is about 13 meters long and 4 meters wide, and the internal space is equivalent to that of a gulfstream G55 jet, which can accommodate four tourists and two crew members at the same time.

The Space Hotel will orbit about 32 kilometers above the earth's surface and circle the earth every 9 minutes. It is expected to open in 222. Although the plan is still in the financing stage, the company has launched an all-inclusive experience package including launch and other expenses: 12 days and 9.5 million US dollars. At present, the hotel has begun to accept reservations with a deposit of $8,. If the subscriber changes his mind, the deposit can be fully refunded.

According to reports, the Space Hotel will provide high-speed wireless network and a suite for two people, so that visitors can "really experience the life of astronauts", such as feeling weightlessness, taking aerial photos of the earth, operating experiments, growing vegetables in space, enjoying the aurora, and watching more than 1 sunrises and sunsets in one day. However, tourists need to receive a three-month training before departure. The content comes from Beijing Daily.
