ACEIZE Tracking the current state of Science and Technology

The Galactic Suite Space Resort is set to accept visitors in 2012. Assuming everything works, there will be a $4.4 million reservation fee for a three night stay and an eight week training course. As of Nov 1, 2009 Galactic Suite Ltd. reports that 43 people have already reserved rooms.

Currently the hotel construction appears similar to Bigelow Areospace's modular hotel. Guests will take off from the New Mexico space port for a 1.5 day journey to the orbiting platform. Additionally, the Galactic Suite hotel will have velcro walls and velcro suits for the visitors. This will allow people to move around more easily (or more comfortably) in zero gravity.

How are they funding this project? A $3 billion investment from an anonymous billionaire.
