Why go to space?
The view
Zero gravity
The experience

I don’t know what you could say about a day in which you have seen sixteen beautiful sunsets
Exploration is really the essence of the human spirit.
From 150 miles up all the problems of the world look small
From space you can’t see any borders
![Page 10: Space Tourism Presentation Brackley Seniors](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051611/54b401af4a79597b478b45a8/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Space travel
• In 45 years only 400 people have been into space
• In 45 years aviation has grown to a $1 trillion per year business & at any time there are 1 million people flying in commercial aircraft
• Why the difference?
![Page 11: Space Tourism Presentation Brackley Seniors](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051611/54b401af4a79597b478b45a8/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Space – the myths
It is a long way away
It is expensive to get to
To fly in space you have to be a “superhero”
![Page 12: Space Tourism Presentation Brackley Seniors](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051611/54b401af4a79597b478b45a8/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Space myths- it is a long way away
It is 100 miles from anywhere
You can be there in 8 minutes
![Page 13: Space Tourism Presentation Brackley Seniors](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051611/54b401af4a79597b478b45a8/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Space myths- expense
It is expensive because:
It was developed along military lines as a “battle ground” of the Cold War
The technology is not commercial – it is bespoke and thrown away after each use
Government space agencies, particular NASA, are self serving bureacracies which have a vested interest in spending more tax money and convincing everyone that space is “hard to do”
![Page 14: Space Tourism Presentation Brackley Seniors](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051611/54b401af4a79597b478b45a8/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Space myths- you have to be a super hero to fly in space
The “astronaut myth” - astronauts are not super human
Passengers don’t have to be pilots!
You don’t have to be super-fit
Max g-load is 3.5g but could be lower with different vehicles
After 8 minutes you are in zero-g

Space – the myths refuted
It is a long way away
IT IS ONLY A HUNDRED MILES FROM ANYWHERE
It is expensive to get to
IT IS EXPENSIVE WHEN IT IS DONE BY GOVERNMENTS
To fly in space you have to be a “superhero”
ORDINARY PEOPLE CAN GO AS PASSENGERS
![Page 18: Space Tourism Presentation Brackley Seniors](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051611/54b401af4a79597b478b45a8/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Who wants to go?
Market research shows a large proportion of the population want to go
Why?
Growth in “experience” travel
People have seen much of the world – now want experiences
NB
40 years ago going abroad was unusual (except military)
20 years ago going long haul was unusual
