Such negative sentiment. Not everything is about rebelling against billionaires you know? Space travel is following the same innovation curve as any other mode of travel. Remember how expensive a car used to be, or flying? Those used to be only for the wealthy, now you can hop on a flight to the other side of the content for less than 100 Euro.

Both the "space" and "travel" parts of "space travel" are disputable there. It's not even "space tourism". I'll maybe give you "high altitude tourism". Space tourism, to me, implies spending an extended period in space, not a minute or two. That's barely enough time for a satisfying wank.

What about Strauss-Kahn who lost the french presidency election because he wanked in front an hotel employee ?
