Climate warning

We don't need space tourism

Orbital Assembly wants to open Space Hotel with artificial gravity in 2027! I wounder what the carbon footprint for this will be per person? 100 ton for a return trip? We are in a climate crisis and this is what people spend their time building? And money to experience. Without a life-supporting atmosphere on Earth. How long will this station keep running? We can't escape from our duty to save the planet. This is not the solution. I am not against space research but we don't need people doing it for fun! A sustainable carbon footprint is <2 ton per person. There is no budget for space tourism in that. In fact. Sell your private jet too! And please stay on the ground as much as possible.
