(1.5 pts) SPACE TOURISM: YOUR NEXT VACATION DESTINATION? The dream of space travel is rapidly becoming a reality for civilians. Several private companies are now offering opportunities for regular people to experience the wonders of space, with prices starting from $250,000 per person. These space tourism packages typically include three days of intensive pre-flight training, covering emergency procedures, weightlessness adaptation, and basic space navigation skills. The actual space journey usually lasts about 90 minutes, with passengers experiencing approximately 6 minutes of weightlessness at an altitude of 50 miles above Earth. During this time, tourists can witness the curvature of our planet and the stunning darkness of space. Medical screenings are mandatory, and participants must meet specific health requirements, including good cardiovascular health and normal blood pressure. Industry experts predict that by 2030, space tourism could become more accessible, with prices potentially dropping to $100,000 per person. Some companies are even developing plans for lunar orbit trips and space hotels, though these advanced programs are still in early development stages. 23.
