Nor will the space tourist's imagined thousands of guests. I mean seriously, how many rooms does The Rocket Inn have ? A dozen ? If (huge giant IF) any of the space tourists stay at The Rocket Inn it won't be the celebrities. It'll be the dreamer who sold their future (second mortgage on their home, that they'll never live to pay off) for a 10 minute amusement park ride and souvenirs. They'll stay at The Rocket Inn because it's the last $50 they have to their name... if they aren't just sleeping in their car.

Sadly, I think either the wealthy tourists will fly in from Albuquerque the day of their flight or stay in Las Cruces. I don’t see these small local businesses getting the huge promised benefits if/when the spaceport opens.

@Leah Ann Mitchell Leah Ann Mitchell I was just using it as an example. I don't expect space tourism to be price comparable to an airline ticket in my life time. Capitalism is the only reason anyone has the opportunity for space tourism OR Commercial airline flights in the first place. No one knows what the future holds space tourism will most likely be a luxury for many many years but the price will inevitably go down. Is there any NEED for anyone to take a cruise to the Bahamas? It's a luxury experience just the same, only this time technology is the main limiting factor as far as price goes. As tech improves price will decrease and demand will increase which will cause further innovation and in the long run will result in lower prices. You also stated that you have never seen capitalism work this way before but that's incorrect. The very computing device you used to type this reply is miles more sophisticated than the most luxury computer 40 years ago that costed tens of thousands. Thanks to capitalism you now have 100,000x more computing power than the moon landings utilized in the palm of your hand.

@@brianharrigan8821 I doubt anybody cares. To most space is basically where you stop seeing the blue atmosphere and are able to see the black space. It's all technicalities. Rocket and boosters are required to help the shuttle leave the grasp of earth's gravity and the push towards its destination. Here we are not trying to leave the earth's gravity. So having rockets and boosters are just a waste of time and money. And even now we don't exactly have a reusable rocket which can take frequent trips like say your next door train or cruise.

lmao! this is so funny that this video was released a day before covid

Here after the successful launch for first human crews! Congratulations!!

Meep meep!

cant wait until it gets cheaper to fly to space

Oh, no, I thought I was going to go a whole video without hearing iconic, but I forgot about this sect's other favorite, love saying it/hearing themselves say it, word, "bespoke." It took a whole 2.45 for it to be uttered.

Truth or Consequences, New Mexico, is worth visiting and staying at just because it is a neat place. It is a good place to stay a couple days when on a road or motorcycle trip. From there, you could visit Elephant Butte Lake State Park or drive up in the mountains.

A doctor with a successful private practice can "afford" to do this. Not exactly exclusively the billionaire range.

No, you mean to millionaires, cos to billionaires its like paying for a uber ride.

The first minute of this video feels like a Welcome To Night Vale episode....

It's weird having traveled to all these obscure parts of America and then seeing them in professionally made videos...

Swara arnav 250k is pretty cheap for space travel. A couple years back we’d be talking about a couple million.
