"The plan is to use a Soyuz spacecraft, piloted by a Russian cosmonaut, for a trek into orbit, where it will meet up with a booster rocket to propel the spacecraft around the far side of the moon. The Soyuz, with its passengers, would circle behind the moon, then return to earth."

Liability insurance would be a severe impediment to space tourism. Waivers will be allowed until there is an accident, then it's over.
