Comment on the idea of private commercial space travel. Is it a good thing or a bad thing? Why or why not?

I feel that private commercial space travel is a good thing because of experiments, gaining of newer knowledge and chances for people to go into space.

I feel that private commercial space travel is a good thing because of experiments people would be able to do. With the exception of NASA, private commercial space travel could be a kind of experiment for people, as things might be give a turn when scientist, whose experiments needs to be in space, can do so, with the help of these private commercial space travels. Space programs to explore space might also be launch for a group of students, who can afford the price to go into space for school programs, for people to better understand space, thus private commercial space travel is a good thing as people can experiment.

Private commercial space travel is also a good thing because people might have a deeper knowledge of space. Excluding the group of people who paid for the trip, astronauts who wants to explore space by himself when he feel that some parts of space is not explored, he could try it out himself and will not need to go with NASA as he might have a mission when going into space already. Thus Private commercial space travel is a good thing as people might have a deeper knowledge of space.

Finally, Private commercial space travel is a good thing because there would be a chance for people to go to space, instead of trained professionals. That means that whoever willing to spend that amount of money to go to space, would be able to. Instead of being a professional astronaut, someone could just pay the amount of money to space travel, and thus raising the economic of a certain country if they manage to get hold of space shuttle. Thus Private commercial space travel is a good thing as normal people can go to space.

In summary, Private commercial space travel is a good thing because people could experiment in space, have a greater knowledge of space and normal people can go to space, raising the economy of a country.
