> it's about Democratizing Space Tourism[0].

Sorry to be a party pooper, but why should space tourism be promoted and developed in the first place? Given the ongoing climate crisis is this responsible? I mean, what's the end game here? Having near space infested with tourists taking selfies and over-consuming like in pre-covid Venice [0]?

Do your concerns extend to regular tourism as well? Is tourism between the US and Europe or Asia responsible?
