I guess that is the part that bothers me the most. With this kind of money, crass commercialism will soon pollute even the sterile reaches of space. No longer will people stand outside on a starry night and look up in awe. Yeah, we went last summer. Jupiter-Disney was better.
Space is supposed to be our final frontier.
Frankly, it's not a frontier when tourists start showing up. Seeing Tito smiling from space is like traveling up the Amazon to a set of golden arches. Granted, space wouldn't be much of a switch for some people. My parents spend every winter in Quartzsite, Ariz., which looks exactly like the surface of the moon. In the summer, it is closer to the sun than Mercury.
