Holidays in Space
The World Tourism Organization says that space will soon be a popular place to go on
holiday possibly by 2020. One Japanese company is getting ready. They are planning a space
holiday centre. It will look like a bicycle wheel and have a hotel for 100 people and a theme park. It
will travel round the Earth at a height of 300 km. The company hopes the centre will be ready in
2017. The company chairman says that flying to the centre will probably be quicker than flying
from Hong Kong to Singapore. When they are on board of the centre, the tourists will take short
trips to the Moon or go for walks in space.
An American hotel group is also thinking of building a hotel, called the Lunar Hotel. This
will be on the Ьoon. Most of the hotel will be under the ground so it wont become too hot or too
cold. The rooms will look just like they do on Earth. The guests will eat normal food for lunch. The
cooks will just push a button to mix dried food with water to become an instant meal
