A visit will allow you only $ 40 million.


Here on earth, the expansions of the vast world of travels are quite exciting.Fitness holidays are a growing trend, in the same waySolo woman Escapades. And between theGame Of Thrones Hotel in FinlandandLong zip lines in the waterThere are new exciting companies by beginner every day. But evenIf you are not a sGuy guy Fans, the most exotic destination (and the most expensive) is definitely space.

It therefore has only meaning that the Russian space agency, whose NASA rockets officially depend on removing astronauts into orbit, try to assume their way in the luxury tourism business. State officials announced that, for a $ 40 million cool, you stay at the next five-star accommodation on the International Space Station (ISS) they hope to build by 2021. If you want to take A place of place as a real astronaut, it will allow you to recover $ 20 million.

"By some estimates, by 2021 there will be more than 43,000 people around the world whose personal fortune exceeds $ 30 million. This means that if only 36 of these people (or 0.33% of the As a whole group), choose to visit the space space, the module would make money. "

Call us crazy, but it sounds a pie in the sky.

However, Russia is not alone to try to send humans in space. His competitors include Elon Musk, who announced that he plans to send two private citizens onA flight around the moon in 2018,and Virgin Galactic, who would have occurred on track to start areas of accompanying commercial passengers by the end of this year, after SpaceHiptwo's fatal accident in 2014.
