Is space tourism a good use of resources?
Manage episode 304067199 series 2913455
Creed and Miles debate whether the new era of space tourism will bring more harm or good. In the past few months, Elon Musk's SpaceX, Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic, and Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin have all hosted civilian passengers on trips outside of the Earth's atmosphere. This debate includes questions of whether or not this will be good for the environment and if it is a productive use of money. Other factors to consider are how commercial space travel can serve a scientific purpose and if this service will eventually become accessible for non-billionaires.
