Space tourism has unlocked a new brand of luxury travel, one which promises expensive meals and designer flight suits with views of Earth’s curvature as a backdrop. A Florida-based startup is offering six passengers the chance to ride on board its balloon-propelled capsule while chowing down on what it claims to be the first Michelin-starred meal in space. And, honestly, we hate to be that guy, but Space Perspective’s capsule will not reach space. Do We Have to Send Humans to Mars for Exploration?This week, Space Perspective announced a partnership with two-Michelin Star restaurant Alchemist, helmed by Chef Rasmus Munk, to host the meal on board the company’s Spaceship Neptune. The capsule will be carried off to the stratosphere while attached to a SpaceBalloon, carrying six people on board for a six-hour journey. Each ticket costs $495,000.An illustration of Spaceship Neptune. Illustration: Space PerspectiveThe giant balloon is propelled by hydrogen and rises up at a slow speed of 12 miles per hour (19 kilometers per hour), reaching an altitude of 20 miles (30 kilometers). However, space technically begins at 62 miles (100 kilometers) above the Earth, an internationally recognized boundary separating the atmosphere from space known as the Karman line. It’s still an imaginary boundary as it’s hard to pinpoint exactly where space begins, Earth’s atmosphere doesn’t have a cut off point where it just vanishes. Instead, it gradually gets thinner with higher altitude. In order to decide on the Karman line, experts agreed that space should start at the point where orbital dynamic forces are more important than aerodynamic forces. At that point, Earth’s atmosphere alone is not enough to support a flying vehicle. For context, passenger jets typically ascend to heights of 7.9 miles (12.7 kilometers) above Earth’s surface.Working from this definition of where “not space” ends, satellites can be positioned over different countries and it is not considered a threat, so long as it’s above that boundary of airspace. Space Perspective does make the distinction in the fine print, recognizing that its Spaceship Neptune only reaches the edge of space. Coverage of the Michelin-starred meal, however, has touted it as being flown to space. And that’s just incorrect.We’ve seen this type of error before when it comes to space tourism, and, frankly, it really gets under our skin. Similarly, Virgin Galactic’s Unity spaceplane flies its passengers to a maximum altitude of 54.2 miles (87 kilometers). That’s a little c

China is learning how to dream big. CAS Space, a Chinese commercial space company owned by the Chinese Academy of Sciences, already has a successful small, solid SLV (Kinetica-1) and is testing the engines for its medium-lift liquid propellant SLV. However, it is also working on a Space Tourism Vehicle. According to its website, it is building a space theme park with its space tourism business. I am sure it would be an adventure you would never forget, but the kids would still rather go to Disney. "The Space Tourism Vehicle will be built with a single-stage sub-orbital orbit and an observation pod. The observation pod seats 7 travelers and offers panoramic views. In the 10-minute journey, the travelers will breakthrough the Kármán line at 100 km high, and experience zero-gravity for as long as three minutes. The pod will be landed safely through parachute at the conclusion of the journey. CAS Space’s space tourism project will achieve a launch interval of 100 hours. A theme park will be built with ten vehicles in rotating service. The theme park, as the name suggests, is more than a launch and recovery ground for the vehicle. It is designed with a space experience center, a theme park, and an educational center where the travelers will be trained for their space journey. Product parameters： Height: 21 m Lift-off Mass: 79 t Apogee above sea-level: 100-120 km Time in space (> 100 km above sea-level) 300-550 s Payload Capacity: 1,000 kg Flight Duration: 300 – 550 s Reusability: >30 times"

Yesterday was another day spent with travel trade partners - this time at NBC Universal HQ in London to meet Universal Studios, Visit Florida, Virgin/Delta and New York City tourism. The UK loves these areas. This is why. New York City has passed the 1m year on year UK visitor barrier which has now exceeded 2019 levels -before ‘it’ happened. There are 1000s of new hotel rooms coming on line and interest in areas outside Manhattan such as Brooklyn. With 36 daily flights from London, it’s also quite easy to get there! Florida has long been a popular destination for the UK market from the Gulf beaches and Tampa to Miami, the Keys and Everglades. Plus the Atlantic coast, Kennedy Space centre, Panama City and the Panhandle beaches plus cruise ports at Miami, Canaveral, Jacksonville, Tampa & Fort Lauderdale. There are also a few theme parks in the Orlando area. 2025 will see the opening of the first new park for 26 years, Universal’s Epic Universe. Split into 5 Worlds (Celestial Park, Dark Universe, The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, Super Nintendo World & How to Train your Dragon - Isle of Berk. This will be a theme park game changer. Or, as they say, a chance to visit Awesome. Are you planning a visit to New York and/or Florida in 2025? #exploremore #visitnyc #visitflorida #whereyourjourneybegins

"Even if it is quite vague what 'space' is, this is not the same with the term 'place'. In reality place can be easily explained as a space which is acquired with definition and meaning, thus is to say, a locality that can become a center of felt value." - Xenia Mastoraki #space #spatiality #place #placemaking #locality #geniusloci #belonging #character #identity #value #meaning

A space Hotel? Yes, there are ongoing plans to open the world's first finest Space Hotel, called "Voyager Station", by 2027. It is being designed by a California-based company called 'Orbital Assembly Corporation' (OAC) [previously known as Above Space]. The ambitious project is expected to be; ● Luxurious resort orbiting Earth, ● Offering stunning views and amenities like restaurants, bars, and even a cinema. While the idea is still in its early stages, it signifies a potential shift towards 'space tourism' becoming more commonplace.. -- PS: Venturing the space, you registered to a list of few people who will be ageing slowly while in space😄. +Space Exploration. 👉Fine Dining with a Twist🌌 #PhysicsGenesis •
