#ArsTechnica says "The suborbital space tourism industry is on life support".

Well, duh. Some ridiculously high price for 7 minutes of microgravity (or whatever) is bullshit. You don't even reach the Kármán line (100 km)! They redefined some other threshold at 80 km just so you could say you went to space. Hint: if you have to redefine a common, long-agreed term, you're not adhering to the letter or the spirit of the law/guideline.

It's orbit or GTFO.

The team found that 91 per cent 📊 of genes were affected, with many switching on and off at the wrong time of day. “#SpaceTravel was once thought to be unachievable; however, the growth of the #SpaceIndustry means it is now a real possibility. In addition, new plans are in place for #UK 🇬🇧 #astronauts 👨‍🚀 going to the #ISS in 📆 2025 via the UK #SpaceAgency #Axiom programme.” https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2024/03/18/jetlag-astronauts-travel-space-lag/

#CNN 📆 May 2022 #OrbitalAssembly is aiming to launch two #SpaceStations with #tourist accommodation: #VoyagerStation is now scheduled to accommodate 400 people and to open in 📆 2027, while new concept Pioneer Station, housing 28 people, could be operational in 📆 2025. There will be "comforts" of artificial #gravity, like showers 🚿, the ability to eat and drink sitting 🪑 down https://edition.cnn.com/travel/article/space-hotel-orbital-assembly-scn/index.html
