this sounds a little "out there" to me as well (pun intended). the amount of money it would cost, not only to build and launch, but to stay at one of these space hotels is absolutely massive. i know they put that this would be for the rich and wealthy of the world, but i can't see it really catching on. who knows though. i'm a little skeptical that no building plans are being released. this could be a lot of talk.
This idea is a pretty cool idea, and thats all I can really consider it, is just an idea. The insane amount of money needed to be put into this idea just doesn't seem to be around to just throw out. Then again who knows, the rich love to spend their money on new and interesting things, so maybe this whole space visit thing could be something big and a new wave for more technology driven tourism.
