I wonder what the space tourism industry will be like in 20-30 years. Maybe I could afford it with my future middle class income (since,I'm still in college). I wouldn't want to go if it's merely affordable, but with a huge ship with lots of stuff to do.

@ould you imagine a zero-gravity pool?

  • Reply

@ow would that work?

  • Reply

@ike, wouldn't the water go everywhere, or would the whole room be a pool and you wear scuba-like gear, but I suppose just tiny mouth breathing pieces, since I declare that will exist.?

  • Reply

@ven with our most advanced technology, we'll never be able to simulate gravity, so we could try literally everything :o?

  • Reply

@h really, how do you know that? I wrote a 'story' once where it had a zero g room. Nothing serious though xD.?

  • Reply

@m 20 now, hopefully before i'm to old to manage the trip i'll be viable, and affordable enough to go up. Might be a worthy retirement sendoff?
