The First Space Tourism is Ready for Launch!
With the introduction of the First Space Travel, this never before tapped industry is about to raise the bar to extraordinary heights, literally! Rarely, do humans get the opportunity to be apart of an creation as significant as the one we are about to witness. A couple come to mind like the invention of the automobile in 1885 by Karl Benz. Or, the creation of the light bulb by Thomas Edison in 1879. Or, similar to that of Space Travel, the brains behind the conception of the airplane in 1903 by the Wright Brothers. Commercial Space Travel isn’t considered a single invention per se, but the advancements that have taken place in Space Travel recently, has skyrocketed us to unimaginable proportions. Planet Earth is filled with an immense variety of adventurous possibilities. From the cobble-stoned streets of Savannah to the serenity of Spain. Earth is a magnificent inception but that’s all about to change. Yes, tourism will of course remain a thriving industry on the ground, however, it has just received a boost of high-octane rocket fueled cells injected directly into the human race.

The Drastic “Drop In Cost Factor” Following First Space Travel
The rich and famous aren’t the only ones who will eventually be able to experience Space Tourism. The first 42-inch plasma TV display was introduced in 1997 for a whopping $14,999. In 2004, I purchased my first plasma television, which was a 42-inch Panasonic for $3,000. Today, high quality 42-inch plasma can be yours for less $500. That is approximately a 96% drop in price over 15 years (or 6.5% decrease each year). It could be argued that the travel industry can’t be compared in that regard, which is an accurate statement. A hotel room 15 years ago actually cost less than it does today. Inflation plays a role in the increase of cruises, airfare, theme park admission, food etc. However, the main factor for the significant decline in the cost of the 
plasma TV’s is technology. We see it everyday from smartphones to game consoles. Much of what makes first space travel a reality is technology. Furthermore, it’s untapped technology just as the 42-inch was in 1997, the first space flight or space hotel will be considerably more until we catch up with the advancements in technology. Actual travel expenses like fuel and labor will continue to increase over time however, a majority of what it is costing the first space traveler today is pure profit (they have to make up for the many years where all this money begin spent on development, and no revenue stream generated during that time). Bear in mind, it the cost of first space travel will significantly decrease over the years. With all that said, anticipate that over the course of a decade, we’ll see at least a 90% drop in the cost of space hotel rates as well as space travel. So, if a space hotel room sells for $30,000 in 2016, expect to only pay $3,000 by 2020. Don’t be shocked if that price went even lower and quicker!
