Ok, I guess it is reality now that it will be possible to take a vacation to outer space in our lifetime. Besides the zero gravity, and an unforgettable look at the earth from out there, what else can be done to space to make it more fun?

Doesn`t matter. There are enough people who can afford the first trips to keep the thing going for a few years. After that prices drop and more people want to try it.
