Audio script
Audio script:
Dreaming of a holiday sunbathing on Mars, or playing some sports at a lunar resort and spa? While it may take decades for these ideas to come true, space tourism, which is space travel for recreational, leisure, or business purposes is becoming more realistic. Since 2001, the American company Space Adventures has flown tourists to the International space Station to live and work alongside professional astronauts for up to 10 days. The company now offers a service called ‘Spacewalk’ where clients can leave the ISS and float above the Earth. It also plans to launch by 2018 its ‘Circumlunar Mission’, which takes clients to within 100 kilometres of the moon’s surface. Virgin Galactic, the world’s first spaceline, has been preparing to launch its first manned spaceflight. By 2015, almost 700 people from more than 50 different countries have paid deposits at the price of $250,000 per ticket. The possibility of travelling into space sounds wonderful, but it has been criticised as well. People say it’s costly, dangerous, and unsustainable, since its growth could cause environmental problems including speeding up global warming.
