Ask HN: What is a realistic timeline for affordable space tourism?
With all of the excitement over the SpaceX launch yesterday, I have been wondering, what is a realistic timeline for affordable space tourism? By affordable, I mean an extravagant but potentially realizable expense for a middle-class consumer. Perhaps around the cost of a luxury car.
- bitxbitxbitcoin 6y agoHow many middle-class consumers are buying luxury cars outright I wonder? Would you consider having to put a downpayment and then pay monthly with interest on a space tourism ticket "affordable space tourism?" Whatever the actual cost - I do hope it happens in my lifetime.
