Here's How Elon Musk Plans to Send Tourists to Space

NASA plans to transfer routine ISS resupply missions to private companies, aiming to reduce costs and eventually enable space tourism. SpaceX and other companies are developing reusable rockets to make space travel more affordable. Since the end of the Space Shuttle program in 2011, NASA has focused on Mars, relying on Russia's Soyuz for astronaut transport. Private competition is expected to lower costs, but safety concerns remain, highlighted by the 2014 Virgin Galactic crash.
