I heard that people are preparing for space tourism. It is a fascinating idea. I hope that it’s just the beginning for space tourism. Unfortunately, it will be reserved for the richest people and the rest of us can only look up and wish we were there. Hopefully our children will have better chances of going on such trips.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I can’t wait to get up and look at the stars from space. It is something that cannot be compared to anything else on this planet. Unfortunately, the cost of such trip is enormous due to the inefficient propulsion we are using today. Once we master much more efficient propulsion for the space exploration the cost of space excursions will plummet and it will become available to us, mortals. It would happen very soon if it wasn’t for the enormous military budgets most of the countries have, especially United States. Imagine what would happen if just part of that money was directed towards space exploration and new technologies instead of making new machines for killing people!
