Heck, let him go to #kickstarter for it and sell everything from souvenirs to actual trips to the facility. his customers can include full on science groups to everyday citizens with obvious disclaimers you have to meet specific medical requirements.
- RugnirViking 6y agoThe scale of fundraising on Kickstarter is not even close to the scale of funding a project like this requires. The largest Kickstarters in history (which this would not be) are in the realm of $20 million. This project will need $135 million, and it's not clear even that will be enough, but my guess is no. For reference, estimates put the actual ISS cost around 150 000 million (150 billion)
- imtringued 6y agoWhy does the cost of the ISS matter when "Jacques Couasteau's grandson" has already projected costs to be lower than the ISS?
- hutzlibu 6y agoStar Citizen raised 300$ million in crowdfunding. Sure, you probably will not get to that level for a science project - but at least some extra money would be good.
