Space hotels are something new. The first orbiting space hotel, Galactic Suite Space Resort (photos below), is on track to open for its first customers in 2012.

The cost of three nights on the Galactic Suite Space Resort (plus a two-month training course on a Caribbean island beforehand) will be $4.4 million US. At least 43 people have already reserved their place, with over 200 expressing an interest.


Guests would circumnavigate the globe every 80 minutes and see the sun rise 15 times a day. They would get around their “pod” rooms by wearing Velcro suits that stick them to the walls to enable them to crawl.
