So, we have a space station where we can have

tourists. What about a five-day holiday in space?

If it makes money, the next step is rather simple.

Building a rely-station in moon orbit. Transfer from

earth station to moon station takes some three

days. But the transfer vehicle is simple. It does

need to get down to earth or down to moon. It just

needs to fly between two pints in space.

Next one is to build a hotel on the moon. Cannot

be too difficult, really.

How to get to the hotel? Again simple: the moon

space elevator. It is rather simple again. It is a real

elevator from a point in space down to the moon

hotel. It is a wire with a capsule. Know technology.

Now we can offer a great package:

3 days on the space station

3 days off to moon.

5 days on the moon with guided tours and walks

Back to earth

Cost: what if it is $10 million? Kardashians could do

it without asking for change.

The areas to improve are:

Capacity up and down to earth station: build the

space elevator from earth to station. This one is

realistic but not simple engineering.

Capacity of earth station: it should be able to cater

for at least 1,000 guests and staff and provide

artificial gravity

Additional zero-gravity capsules

Can it work? Yes, if there is money to be made and

an entrepreneur with vision. We do have those

actually
