This episode of E+T: Off the Page looks into the divisive world of space tourism. Regular contributors Tim Fryer, Jack Loughran and Tanya Weaver are joined by Dr Simon Foster from Imperial College London to discuss whether space tourism has a sustainable, meaningful future, or if it’s just an extravagant venture for the wealthy. The engages in thoughtful debate on whether space tourism can inspire a new generation toward STEM or if its environmental impact and exclusivity overshadow any potential benefits.
The conversation also weaves through the evolution of rocket technology, from Richard Branson’s Virgin Galactic flights to Elon Musk's reusable rockets at SpaceX and explores the current ticket prices, environmental consequences, and regulatory complexities surrounding private space flights.
