The first luxury hotel in space is coming

The very first luxury space hotel is coming soon! Aurora Station is named after the magical light phenomenon that illuminates Earth's polar sky. The exclusive hotel can accommodate six people at a time – including two crew members. Space travelers will enjoy a completely authentic, once-in-a-lifetime astronaut experience with extraordinary adventure during their 12-day journey, starting at $9.5 million per person. The first guests will be welcomed in 2022.

While staying at Aurora Station, travelers can enjoy the thrill of zero gravity and fly freely through Aurora Station, gazing at northern and southern dawn through the many windows, soaring over their hometown, participating in research experiments such as growing food while inside (which they can take home as the ultimate souvenir), enjoy a virtual reality experience on the holodeck, and stay in touch with their loved ones at home via high-speed wireless Internet access. In space, guests of Aurora Station will soar 200 miles above the Earth's surface, where they will see a beautiful view of the Earth. The hotel will orbit the Earth every 90 minutes, meaning those on board will see 16 sunrises and sunsets on average every 24 hours.
