In 2001 an American, Dennis Tino, became the world's first space tourist. He travelled to the International Space Station by rocket and stayed there for ten days. A year later South African millionnaire, Mark Shuttleworth, went on the same trip. When he returned to Earth he said, "Every second will be with me for the rest of my life." Both men paid $20 million for their holidays.

The company that organized their trip is called Space Adventures. Its president, Eric Anderson, thinks space tourism will be the next big thing. "Everyone's looking for a new experience," he says. In a few years he is going to start selling rocket trips to the public for about $100,000.

Another company, The Space Island Group, is planning to build a circular(圆形的)hotel in space, like the spaceship in the film 2001: A space Odyssey. It will have everything a normal hotel has, except that the bedrooms won't have windows. This is because the hotel will revolve and people will feel sick if they look out of a window. Instead, there will be screens showing pictures from space. Gene Meyers, the company's president, thinks that in 2020 a five-day holiday at the hotel might cost only $25,000.
