While the future of space travel is still indefinite, Orbital Assembly, a large space company, recently announced their plan to start the construction of a space hotel. They are aiming to begin the assembly of their space hotel in 2026.
Based on early renderings, the hotel will look almost like a Ferris wheel floating in orbit, with an outer ring connected to the center hub of the structure by elevators. Though the number of rooms has yet to [be]confirmed, the newspaper reports that the hotel will have room for up to 280 guests, all of whom will be required to undergo some space training, and 112 crew members. The company intends to build the hotel out with all the amenities you’d expect at a luxury property, including restaurants, entertainment options, a gym, spa and shopping. You’ll even be able to take a spacewalk while you’re there. It’s basically a luxe resort that happens to orbit the earth.
I wonder if someone would be interested to go through a special training just to experience shopping in space.
