SPACE
TOURISM
The task for this project was to design a poster that explains what is "Space Tourism" and how it works. The challenge was to organize, edit, and hierarchize the order of a large amount of information to understand the material.
How it works:
SPACE TOURISM is human space travel for recreational purposes. There are several different types of space tourism, including orbital, suborbital and lunar space tourism. Work also continues towards developing suborbital space tourism vehicles.
Mission
Moon:
The Moon is one of Earth’s closest habitable neighbors and provides an opportunity to gain valuable experience for missions to Mars and beyond. Lunar missions such as the one depicted here would typically last 6-7 days.
Mission
Mars:
At an average distance of 140 million miles, Mars is one of Earth's closest habitable neighbors. Mars is about half again as far from the Sun as Earth is, so it still has decent sunlight. It is a little cold, but we can warm it up. Its atmosphere is primarily CO2 with some nitrogen and argon and a few other trace elements, which means that we can grow plants on Mars just by compressing the atmosphere. Gravity on Mars is about 38% of that of Earth, so you would be able to lift heavy things and bound around.
