Space tourism, which is now restricted to a few wealthy travellers, is about participating in manned flight in space. This new tourism appeared in 2001 and is a collaboration between space agencies and private companies. With tickets costing between 20 and 30 million dollars, space tourism is still a dream only available to a few very wealthy travellers. To date, only a handful of people worldwide have experienced the journey into space with the Space Adventures agency, but the companies offer differents flybys of Earth with more accessible prices. Space Adventures mission is to open space flight and the space frontier to private citizens, but actually Space Adventures vision extends far beyond space tourism. Its purpose is not only to allow private citizens to fly to space, but to facilitate as well, the creation of new vehicles and markets that will open space resources for human benefit.
