Space Tourism...the next giant leap to the stars, planets and moons for humankind! Space Tourism is becoming a reality instead of an idea in the very near future. The costs should be more affordable as the industry grows and becomes more competitive. Improvements to technology which will make a vacation in space more efficient should also make it less expensive.

How about near space flight that children and senior citizens are able to do along with the rest of us? Check out what beautiful views of Earth can be seen from this ride on from WorldView. It appears that they are selling flights soon that may be starting by 2015. I've seen ticket prices at $75,000; however, if this new flight technology is successful the prices should go down with other businesses sprouting up over time.
