Thoughts on space tourism? I find it a bit distasteful, personally

agreed, seems pretty self indulgent almost to a comical degree

I've always found it a bit weird how much effort and resources we pour into ventures like this when there's still so much work left to do right here on earth

It's always great to see the ways in which we push the boundaries of what we dream to be possible. Regardless of what I think of the people pushing these projects, the fact is that being able to put people in space safely has always been an incredible feat

I think it is an excellent way to take advantage of people and to be allowed to do so.

I like it personally. I think it’s a good way to get indirect funding for all the research and development needed for all the other things we need to do in space

who cares? if people want to blow exorbitant amounts of money on a glorified joy ride that's their problem

Bad for the environment, good for funding further space projects, potentially a net negative depending on how often these kind of trips happen

Space tourism is an exciting prospect and has the potential to offer civilians a unique view of our universe. However, there are some concerns that need to be addressed before space tourism can become commonplace. One issue is the cost of space travel. Another is the potential for accidents or emergencies that could occur during spaceflight.

There are people worried about how space tourism will impact our planet and its environment. Despite these worries, space tourism has the potential to be a transformative experience for civilians and could help us better understand our place in the universe.

Space tourism is a really cool idea! It's something that has always fascinated me and I would love to experience it firsthand. I think it's amazing that we have the technology to take people into space and I'm excited to see how the industry develops in the future.

I am fairly green in academia (< 1 year) and I want to shift to an area of research which I always wanted to do but never could as a Ph.D. student (because of conflict of interest).
The issue I am facing is that due to lack of my documented research experience in this field (read, lack of papers) I am finding it very hard to land any grant and reviewers keep saying "The PI hasn't demonstrated any experience in said research" blah blah.
Any advice on how to overcome this?
