Space tourism: Research recommendations for the future of the industry and perspectives of potential participants
2011, Tourism Management
This paper has two objectives. Firstly, it proposes a set of research dimensions for the further investigation of the emerging space tourism industry and secondly, it examines the perceptions of potential space travel participants on key factors that influence their ...

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explain how the elements of a tourism policy class (historical, structural, economic, social, and technological) are employed in the discussion and analysis of space tourism. Design/methodology/approach The material serves as revision class of methods and concepts. The topics and methods covered depend in part on previous class content making use of space tourism materials available on the web and in the literature. Findings The sources cited cover a remarkable and growing range of space tourism endeavors worldwide. Whilst it is definitively not a forecast, the paper does appraise future directions in space tourism. Practical implications Further research is required in order to properly evaluate the value of space tourism to future human societies, and strategize accordingly. Originality/value As a source‐based review, the paper has limited originality, but shows the possibilities and limitations of tourism planning methods for space tourism.

There is limited research on the behavior of different categories of space tourists as identified by different types of space tourism. To address this deficiency, this work examines what factors make consumers participate in orbital and/or sub-orbital space tourism, along with three dimensions of motivation, constraint, and artificial intelligence. To achieve the study goals, a comprehensive research model was developed that included three dimensions of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, intrapersonal and interpersonal constraint, and awareness of and trust in artificial intelligence, in comparing orbital and sub-orbital space tourism groups. A questionnaire was carried out with respondents who wanted to participate in orbital (n=332) and sub-orbital (n=332) space tourism in the future. Partial least squares (PLS)-structural equation modeling (SEM), fuzzy-set Qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA), multi-group analysis, and deep learning were utilized to understand potential space tourist behavior. Extrinsic motivation has the greatest positive impact on behavioral intention, followed by awareness of and trust in artificial intelligence, while intrapersonal constraint strongly negatively affects behavioral intention. Surprisingly, interpersonal constraint is insignificant by PLS-SEM, but is still one of sufficient causal configurations by fsQCA. Interestingly, the two types of space tourism have very distinct characteristics. This work created a comprehensive integrated research model with three dimensions of motivation, constraint, and artificial intelligence, along with potential orbital and sub-orbital space tourist groups to identify future consumer behavior. Importantly, this study employed multi-analysis methods using four different approaches to better shed light on potential orbital and sub-orbital space tourists.

The authors argue that the creation of a popular new industry of passenger space travel could be economically and socially very beneficial in creating new employment in aerospace and related fields in order to supply these services. In doing so, the application of nearly a half-century of technological development that has yet to be used commercially could create many new aerospace engineering business opportunities. In addition, by growing to large scale, space tourism has unique potential to reduce the cost of space travel sharply, thereby making many other activities in space feasible and profitable. The paper discusses the scope for new employment, stimulating economic growth, reducing environmental damage, sustaining education particularly in the sciences, stimulating cultural growth, and preserving peace by eliminating any need for ''resource wars''.

This dissertation project explores the production and patronage of space attractions in the first decade of human spaceflight. I argue that these sites represent the efforts of individuals and institutions to render spaceflight relevant to their lives. Mass tourism to space attractions offers a new opportunity to examine the role of spaceflight in

Through in-depth interviews with 10 individuals who experienced extensive space tourism activities, the grounded theory approach revealed four underlying themes of motivations, constraints, negotiation, and future intention along with nine macro themes, identifying relevant tourism-based theories (e.g., leisure constraints, push-pull motivation).
In this article, a review is made on the determination of the goals of space tourism, the history of human space travel and thus the initiatives developed by different companies to make...
The results are outlined under headings, namely, space tourism awareness and interest, motivation, key factors influencing customer decision to travel into space, perceived risk in space travel, safety issues in space tourism, and demand in the UK.
Space tourism becomes increasingly recognized worldwide as it attracts a type of tourism that seeks new and unique adventures. According Annual Report UNWTO (2016), tourism is a sector which benefits in so many
The findings, analysed using grounded theory, can be compressed into four dimensions – “virtual travel”, “comparative fairness”, “technological innovations” and “ecopolitics” – through which actions towards sustainability in space tourism might be enhanced in different national planning strategies.
Space tourism”, “Space related tourism” or “Interest in Space exploration” are defined in this paper to fulfil those objectives, as properly understanding tourist motivation for ground space tours and activities requires a proper definition to work with.
Space tourism operators currently face some of the same risks and regulatory uncertainty as early air carriers, as well as additional challenges. This thesis will review the regulatory and legal environment, discuss how it has evolved, and recommend changes that would promote the growth of the space tourism industry, which reflect that
Adopting a concept-driven approach, we conduct a hybrid review to sketch the emerging market areas in space tourism and provided insights into tourists' behavioral responses. Our results are supplemented by an analysis of public viewpoints on space-faring to gauge their alignment with academic views on space tourism.
