Fly me to the moon

It will be the trip of a lifetime: a fortnight in space, including a gentle cruise around the moon wiht plenty of time to take pictures. Lifetime membership of one of the world's most exclusive clubs(current membership: 27 Apollo astronauts) is included.

The only sticking point might be the price-the two-week, 250,000-mile journey to the far side of the moon will cost a cool $100m.

Space Travel: Bringing Costs Down To Earth

Mars or bust. That's the banner that President Bush wants to run up the White House flagpole. Establishing an outpost on Mars is a fine goal -- if you worry about the sun exploding and toasting life on Earth in a few billion years. But for now, avoiding the "or bust" is the challenge.

A decade ago, NASA calculated it would cost close to $500 billion to head back to the moon as a stepping-stone to Mars. Today, the tab could top an astronomic $750 billion. But taxpayers would get handed a far smaller bill if Washington made some long-overdue changes. Since man last set foot on the moon in 1972, NASA has enjoyed a monopoly on U.S. manned space missions, doling out contracts to its aerospace cronies. As a result, the cost of putting people into orbit is about the same now as 30 years ago -- roughly $10,000 per pound, although cheaper commercial launch vehicles are available.

about Space Travel

Even after NASA figures out how to bring down the cost of space travel from $10,000/pound to something more reasonable, the biggest factor limiting our access to space is not a technological problem. It is simply that adults do not see a practical reason for entering space, although many of them may dream of us eventually doing so. We are very quick to come up with money to start wars and make ourselves safe and comfortable, but no nation in existence today would ever consider funding space exploration at the rate we did in the 1960's when we went to the moon. Imagine what we could do, and the places we could go, if we really invested in the high frontier! During the 1960's, NASA's budget was 5% of the American Federal Budget. Today, in 2003, it has fallen to less than 0.7% - nearly a factor of 10 times smaller!!!

Space Adventures' next giant leap would be finding some ultra-deep-pocketed clients who are willing to pay $100 million a seat to fly around the moon and back in a souped-up version of the same Soyuz craft the Russians used to send Olsen to the space station. It may sound like pure science fiction — but Eric Anderson, the company's president and chief executive officer, says the venture has a good chance of moving forward.

NASA unveils new spaceship for travel to Moon and Mars

NASA, unveiled the spacecraft that will succeed the Space Shuttle program: the Crew Exploration Vehicle, or CEV. The spacecraft will be designed to carry four astronauts to and from the moon, support up to six crewmembers on a future mission to Mars and deliver crew and supplies to the International Space Station.

The U.S. Space Agency Administrator Michael Griffin defended the $104 billion dollar lunar program, saying it is intended to make President Bush's Vision for Space Exploration a reality.

The position of some stars when you were born has nothing to do with your life decades later. You can't really believe in that nonsense?
