The first space hotel is expected to operate in 227. What do you think of the future development of space tourism?

According to a report by the US media on March 4th, local time, an American space construction company recently announced that it will start construction of the world's first space hotel in low-earth orbit in 225, with theme restaurants, cinemas, spas and rooms accommodating up to 4 people. It is optimistic that it will start operation in 227.

Remember the giant rotating space station in the movie The Wandering Earth? The shape of the space hotel will also be a huge ring, which is connected by a series of pods outside the ring. The artificial gravity produced by rotation is similar to the gravity level on the surface of the moon, and it rotates around the earth every 9 minutes. Some of these pods can be sold to institutions such as the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and the European Space Agency (ESA) for space research.

in today's world, tourism is an important part of modern civilized society, and it is also an important symbol of whether modern society is full of vitality. This is also one of the important means for many countries to earn foreign exchange and prosper their economies. In 198, countries around the world earned $96 billion in economic income from tourism alone. Therefore, countries actively develop tourism resources according to their own characteristics, take all effective measures to attract tourists, and vigorously develop their own tourism. It can be imagined that with the appearance of various high-speed and cheap spacecraft, especially after the birth of Space City, space tourism will undoubtedly become an important part of space industrialization.

It should be pointed out that the key to developing space tourism is to develop more advanced and cheaper space transportation systems and space cities. According to the vision of aerospace experts and people who advocate space colonization, whether it is to develop a more advanced space transportation system or to build a long-awaited space city, it may become a reality at the beginning of this century. By then, the universe that mankind yearns for will no longer be the hereditary territory of professional astronauts, but will become a paradise for all mankind.

in other words, anyone who is in good health is eligible to travel in space. Of course, space tourists will include all kinds of people. Some are natural scientists who go to space for scientific research and scientific research, some are writers, artists and journalists. They go to space to embody life, and some heads of government visit space cities, while others go to space cities. Businessmen from various countries negotiate trade business.

Of course, ordinary tourists who want to share the fun of space travel can get what they want, but they wait in line and wait patiently. Perhaps geologists and explorers have the best hope of landing on the moon, reaching other planets in the solar system, and starting from fact-finding missions and exploration missions to asteroids. Although space tourists have different purposes, Space City is a must-see attraction, which opens up broad prospects for vigorously developing the tourism industry in Space City.

O 'Neill, a professor at Princeton University in the United States and the most active advocate of space colonization, optimistically pointed out that by 281, when predicting the development prospect of human society in the next 1 years, there will be a person with a driving distance of 5 kilometers per second. There will be many space cities in the solar system, especially in the asteroid belt between Jupiter and Mars. By then,? 2 million people will travel between the earth and space every year? . If his prediction can be realized, then the space tourism will have an immeasurable impact on the future economic development and social prosperity of space!
