As technology advances and private companies join the space race, regular people might soon get their chance to see Earth from above. Let's look at five important points about the future of space tourism and what it means for everyone.

The Timeline for Regular Space Tourism By 2025-2030: Regular suborbital flights will become common. Several companies will offer these trips, and prices will start to drop as competition increases.

The future of space travel looks bright, and it's getting closer every day. While we wait for prices to come down and technology to improve, we can start learning about space and planning for the day when a trip to orbit is as common as flying in an aeroplane is today.
