Russians To Open Luxury Hotel In Space By 20160

A Russian firm announced that they have a great plan by stationing an orbiting in the cosmos. Orbital Technologies has great plans to make Commercial Space Station to serve as a tourism hub for travelers and offers accommodation for the International Space Station and workspace for science projects.
Unfortunately, this project hasn’t started yet, and it’s unlikely to start anytime soon. Their main objective is to launch a seven-room station by 2016, but the capacity may differ based on customer demand. The first module will measure 20 cubic meters and have four cabins, designed for up to seven passengers, who would go into orbit using the Soyuz shuttle.
Other space tourists such as the Canadian founder of the Cirque du Soleil, Guy Lalibarte, were squeezed into the International Space Station (ISS) along with cosmonauts and animal life including fruit flies.
