Holidays in Space
The World Tourism Organization says that space will soon be a popular place to go on holiday – possibly by 2020. One Japanese company is getting ready. They are planning a space holiday centre. It will look like a bicycle wheel and have a hotel for 100 people and a theme park. It will travel round the Earth at a height of 300 km. The company hopes the centre will be ready in 2017. The company chairman says that flying to the centre will probably be quicker than flying from Hong Kong to Singapore. When they are on board of the centre, the tourists will take short trips to the Moon or go for walks in space.
An American hotel group is also thinking of building a hotel, called the Lunar Hotel. This will be on the Ьoon. Most of the hotel will be under the ground so it won’t become too hot or too cold. The rooms will look just like they do on Earth. The guests will eat normal food for lunch. The cooks will just push a button to mix dried food with water to become an instant meal!
