The United States is planning to build the first luxury hotel in space. Orion Span, a Houston based company, claims the construction of the 35x14-foot Aurora Space Station in the end of 2021 will be completed. Guests can start to stay there next year.
The organization claims that, at one time, there are four space-tourists and two crew members in the hotel. They will return again after 12 days of intense earthquake around the earth.
Orion Span's proposed space-hotel will have special attractions for tourists. Talking through zero-gravity energy in the station, seeing the homes of tourists from space, helping in the study of food grains in the space station, and talking from space to friends, relatives and live video with relatives.
For this, the cost will be 9.5 million US dollars or 62 crores. That is, around 5 crore taka every day. Besides this, another Tk 52 lakh deposit will be kept. When the journey ends, that money will be refunded.
However, before traveling to a real space, the tourists will have to take special training for three months. Orion Span Chief Executive Frank Bunger said, "We want to take people to space, because this is the end of our civilization and the final decision.
He added, now it is possible to reduce the costs of launching the space shuttle at the cost of US $ 10 million. His hope is, the cost will fall further in the coming days.
Along with Orion, other non-governmental organizations also focus on commercial aerospace and travel. For example, in February, Elon Mask launched the experimental Falcon Heavy Rocket from the Kennedy Space Center.
