It has been 60 years since man became an astronaut, but it has not been long since space tourism began. Space tourism is space travel for adventure and recreation. The concept of space tourism gained worldwide attention in 2021, following the space missions of Virgin Galactic, Blue Origin, and SpaceX in July and September 2021. With 5G and the Internet of Things (IoT), space tourism could become a multi-billion dollar industry today and in the future. Space tourism is as much about celebrating and enjoying as it is about traveling the earth, but it is also very different. On this journey, you can enjoy unseen sights and earthly adventures. With the development of the space tourism sector, the journey, which was hitherto monopolized only by experts, will now be possible for anyone with money. In short, future tourism will extend not only to Earth, but also to the Moon, Mars, or beyond.
Space travel is of two types. They can be classified as sub-orbital flight or orbital flight. Orbital flight is the journey to Earth's Kármán line. On this journey, it reaches the end of the Earth's atmosphere and enters the beginning of space, but does not orbit the Earth. This is the most beautiful sight on earth. From a plane flying over the surface of the earth, it seems that the earth never ends. But the sub-memory flight space can be seen as a very small oasis with infinite space. Space tourism with accommodation at the International Space Station is Orbital flight. The voyage is designed to take a week's return from the International Space Station. The return to Earth will be accompanied by astronauts who have completed six months at the International Space Station, and it is very expensive too. Founded in 2002 by businessman Elon Musk, SpaceX (Space Exploration Technologies Corporation) aims to reduce the cost of space travel and establish human colonies. The California-based company has built spacecraft such as the Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy launch vehicles, rocket engines, the spacecraft Dragon, and the communications satellite Star Link. This is the first company, many things have been done in space.
Like SpaceX, Virgin Galactic is a private American company that organizes space travel. The company was started in 2004 by American billionaire Richard Branded. The California-based company's space base is located in New Mexico. The Virgin Galactic's goal was to launch its first spacewalk in early 2021, but it was postponed due to the expansion of the Covid. After several test flights, the Virgin Galactic was launched into space for the first time on July 11, 2021. The passengers were company founder Richard Branson and Colin Bennett, Beth Moses and Sirisha Bandla. The VSS Unity spacecraft traveled at an altitude of 86 km.
Blue Origin is a company founded by Amazon owner Jeffsta Bezos. The Blue Origin Company planned the spaceflight in the New Shepherd spacecraft. On July 20, 2021, Jeff Bezos was accompanied by Mark Bezos, Wally Funk and Oliver Daemon. Oliver Daemon became the youngest person to travel by space. As of October 13, 2021, Origin had sent 8 people into space. Today, space is the most expensive tourist spot that only billionaires can dream of. The history of the popular amenities shows that in the early days they were only available to the wealthy.
