First-ever Space Hotel Which Overlooks Earth To Open By 2025

Most people are born, live, and die on Earth.

That’s normal, right?

But the universe is so unimaginably enormous.

Let’s forget the universe for a second. Even our galaxy itself is a size beyond our comprehension.

And I thought the distance from my sofa to my fridge was long.

I’m sure most of us would have had at least the slightest of desires to explore outside of Earth, however scary it may seem.

We would love to see how Earth looks like from the outside, for once.

While the most deeply passionate end up becoming astronauts, not all of us are destined for a life in a space suit.

But we may have other options very soon.

Space Hotel

No, it’s not clickbait.

It’s exactly what it sounds like.

And no, this is not the fictional plot for the next Star Wars movie either.

This is the real life.

We’re talking about an actual hotel that will be physically located in space.

The Von Braun Rotating Space Station is expected to open in 2025. That’s only six years from now.

Could you imagine this conversation happening in 2030, perhaps?

Me: Eh, we very long never go honeymoon le leh.

My future wife: Where you wanna go eh?

Me: Usual places lo. Star Cruise, Disneyland, Space Station… you choose uh

My future wife: All of these boring leh… got anywhere new?

Well, apparently that’s the goal that Tim Alatorre, senior design architect of the Von Braun Space Station, has in mind.

Seriously, can you imagine having a luxurious hotel room with this outside the windows?

Talk about having a great view, am I right?

Future Plans

Such an experience has to cost at least $100,000 and a kidney, right?

While Alatorre admits that this is may be true at the start, the company behind this project, The Gateway Foundation, aims to make “space travel open to everyone”.

Meanwhile, concepts of this hotel resemble luxury cruises and hotels (on Earth) very much.

You also won’t have to worry about the problems astronauts face.

You’ll be eating scrumptious delicacies instead of dried astronaut foods, and bathroom activities won’t be an issue either.

There’ll also be gravity, so you don’t have to be afraid of floating away when you’re asleep.

In fact, they’ll make entertainment activities out of low gravity such as basketball, trampolining, and rock climbing.

Well, I’m completely sold.

I think if I have start saving up now, maybe I can afford a stay there.

Might have to sell a kidney and a lung, though. I can still survive, right?

Anything for such an out of this world experience.
