Because 1 Ship isn’t Enough

Jessie Atkin posted a blog on Digital Landing about a new vacation spot, in outer space.

I’ve written about space tourism before but this new concept suborbital vehicle is a little different than designs we’ve seen previously.

It looks like a fish bowl. It’s just a concept ship right now but it’ll provide one hell of a view. Quite a leap from those singular port hole windows of yesteryear. Armadillo Aerospace plans to build a prototype in 2009 for a launch in 2010. It sure looks funny but I hope it all works out. Although, for an $100,000 trip price tag, the trip better be pretty incredible.
