Blog Post of the Day:
Tell me about the global issue you selected. What do you already know about the issue? What are you looking forward to learning about it? Explain.

I have selected the global issue of Space Tourism. this issue comes along with much controversy and questions because it is viewed by many people as not economically plausible. This so called "futuristic idea" may be closer to present day reality than most people may think due to many things like the increase of private space programs and the constant improvement of technology. In the past 10 or 15 years the cost of space tourism has dropped to less than half of its original cost. It is also projected to be cost effective in the sense of commercial use in the next 20 or so years at its current rate. Space Tourism should be possible if not in the present then in the very near future.
