A Greek perspective on Space Tourism

In this recent article in To BHMAOnline (which my search engine just turned up), author Tasos Kafantaris discusses the future possibilities of Space Tourism.

A Space Elevator is briefly mentioned; the article says that a ticket to space today costs ‘…20 to 22 million Euros”.  Kafantaris speculates that a Space Elevator ticket to an orbital hotel might only cost “100 Euros”.  Of course these days, that’s a lot of American money… 🙂

The original article is in Greek – the Google translation into English can be found here.
