"This is the killer application for space industry," Sheerin said. "You've got a destination already."
Thanks FairO. Looks like they've got the right idea. Of course, at best, the cost per passenger will wind up subsidized by the taxpayer (because of the ISS servicing).

Yeah, a passenger-friendly ICBM. I wonder if they also have MIRV version. That way, it takes off Nova Scotia and upon reentry, several modules heading for different destinations, for example, Paris, London, Berlin, and Rome.

That would be neat.:-)
