Uhh... that’s a really good price. It costs about that much to fly on a European airline. Is that U.S. Air? U.S. No Air?

$10,0000 for a trip to the moon? Sounds like a deal to me.

[ClearCase_guy]

I won’t hold my breath.

[Buttons12]

How much is a “virtual” version?

[I want the USA back]

It will cost a lot more than that. Doesn’t sound much like a vacation to me. Walking around outside in a stiff space suit. Confined inside in cramped quarters.
Primitive sanitary facilities.

[irishjuggler]

Right. GBP 8000 to fly TO the moon... and $10 million for the return trip.

[ifinnegan]

Sounds like a hoax, Investment scam type of thing.

[Oldeconomybuyer]

Go to Utah. It’s cheaper and has Starbucks.

[Gamecock]

That is a bargain! I’ve spent more that that on plane tickets.

[SandRat]

Can we get a one way ticket for Harry Reid an Rosie O Donnell?

[mtrott]

Wow, what could possibly go wrong??? Dream vacation? Or, nightmare?

"Moon Express is the only private company to be granted permission (under US law) to leave Earth and land on the moon"

Wait! What?! People need bureaucratic permission to leave the Earth and land on the moon?!?

One can understand national laws governing travel in the airspace over the US in order to get into (or return from) space. And there may be some international laws (agreed to by US treaty) on similar travel in international (over oceans) airspace. But once in space, travelling to the moon (or a planet), and landing on it, should be outside of the jurisdiction of any government on Earth.

That promise has been made for decades.
The closest anyone seriously gets are the balloons that take you to the edge of space.

There is so much vacationing to do there, cruise ship, water skiing, snow skiing, lawn tennis, ... where do I sign up. /s

[pabianice]

Tourist deaths on the Moon will be available in 10 years.
