Lecture on 'Space Tourism: The Next Frontier'

by Dr. Punita Masrani, Aeromedical Physician

Thermosphere is one of the layers of Earth’s atmosphere

Temperature in the layer can reach up to 4,500 °F

But if you were to hang out in the thermosphere, you would be very cold

because there aren’t enough gas molecules to transfer the heat to you

Dr. Punita Masrani

Dennis Tito was the first commercial spaceflight passenger

He went to space on the Russian Soyuz TMA Launch Vehicle in April 2001

Dr. Punita Masrani

Those who travel to space🌌 just for experience, pay for it and they have to go through:

🔵Stringent selection standards
🔵Extensive training
🔵Adopted measures of counteract challenges

Space Tourism is space travel for recreational, leisure or business purposes
