Argument: Apart from the few tourists that already have been out in space, commercial space flights will be available in 2008 through spacelines like Space Adventures and Virgin Galactic. Several organizations plan to put the first man on Mars by year 2030 and the launch window in January/February 2031 is likely. This combined will generate a great interest in the suborbital flights, which will lower the price.

Questions: What current tourist destinations/attractions will suffer from the development of space tourism? What activities will there be at the accommodations in space, for people to stay longer? How will the future interest in space tourism affect education and common knowledge about space among people?
