Introduction: Misunderstanding about Space
In projecting the future development of the world economy, mainstream economists fail to foresee a major part of the coming decades' economic activity because they suffer from a major misunderstanding about space activities that is unfortunately widespread both outside and inside the "space industry". This misunderstanding is held also by leading contemporary historians such as Samuel Huntington (1) and Francis Fukuyama (2), by leading contemporary sociologists such as Alvin Toffler(3), and by well-known economic commentators such as Robert Heilbroner (4) and Jeremy Rifkin (5).
(This misunderstanding might perhaps be called the " Player Piano Error" after the 1952 novel by the author Kurt Vonnegut (6): this describes an apparently plausible but economically unrealistic future condition of the USA in which most of the population is unemployed, spending their lives comfortable but bored on government "make work" schemes, while a small elite manage the highly automated industry that produces goods and services for everyone.)
The mistake underlying these writers' view of the future is the assumption that ordinary people cannot go to space. They believe that it is almost impossibly difficult to get to space, and that only specially selected people with extensive training can survive the "rigours" of space travel. Consequently they assume that space activities will remain trivially small in scale, and that humans' future will be essentially Earth-bound.
This idea is entirely mistaken: in fact it is not very difficult to travel to space - it has been done regularly for nearly 40 years (ie since before such basic features of modern life as satellite communications, colour television, Beatles' music, the Boeing 747, oral contraceptives, credit-cards, video-cassettes, heart pacemakers, micro-computers, microwave ovens, compact discs, optical fibres, the Internet, DNA finger-printing, mobile telephones, GPS and many others); and essentially anyone can travel to and from space without any stress or ill-effects.
Because of these facts, commercial space travel services can grow in future essentially without limit; and they are likely do so once private businesses start to earn profits from them, due to the very large unsatisfied demand for these services - as has recently begun to receive official recognition. This development will have a profound effect on the world economy and on human activities over the next few decades, making the visions of the future described by most economic commentators to date, including those mentioned above, seriously inaccurate.
1.1 Space Tourism Feasible
The main reason why passenger travel services to and from space are not available today is not because they are difficult or even particularly expensive to develop, at least by comparison with current government budgets for civilian space activities - but because government space agencies are not trying to develop them - although they spend $25 billion/year of taxpayers' money. As an example, the largest space agency, NASA, has the " X-33" reusable rocket under development, but it is unpiloted; its intended successor, "Venture Star", is not suitable for passenger-carrying; and it represents barely 2% of NASA's budget. Furthermore, government space agencies have never carried out market research on the demand for space travel services among the general public.
Because of the lack of research on the feasibility of tourism in space, the Japanese Rocket Society ( JRS), a private organisation established in 1956, started a formal "Space Tourism Study Programme" in 1993. A series of papers and reports on the results of this work has been published (7), of which major conclusions to date include:
the " Kankoh-maru" VTOL launch vehicle could carry 50 passengers to and from low Earth orbit at a price of some $25,000/passenger, and could be developed and put into commercial operation within 10 years at a total investment of some $12 billion.
Based on preliminary market research performed in Japan, Canada, Germany and the USA between 1993 and 1995 (8, 9), the popular demand for tourist trips to low Earth orbit ( LEO) is potentially large enough to justify producing some 50 Kankoh-maru vehicles, on which scale this activity could be self-financing.
Anyone in sufficiently good health to ride on a scheduled airline flight could make a short trip to and from space without any ill effects on their health, and without training (unless they were required to play some role in the vehicle's operation). If there was ever any doubt about this, the orbital flight by 77 year-old US Senator John Glenn in October 1998 eliminated it.
These results have recently been endorsed in general terms by NASA (10), by the American Institute for Astronautics and Aeronautics, AIAA, (11) and by independent researchers (12, 13), who confirm that commercial passenger space travel services could grow to a larger scale than all exist

Introduction: misconceptions about the area
in projecting the future development of the global economic mainstream economists do not expect a significant share of economic activity for decades. 'Because they suffer from a misunderstanding about an important area of activity is widespread. Unfortunately, both outside and within the "industrial area. " This misconception is held by the contemporary historian such as Samuel Huntington (1) and Francis Fukuyama (2) The sociologist leading contemporary like Alvin Toffler (3) and. economic commentators known as Robert Heilbroner (4) and. Jeremy Rifkin. (5) (This misunderstanding may be called. "Piano player" error after the 1952 novel by author Kurt Vonnegut (6): This explains the apparently possible. But unrealistic economic condition of the United States, which in the future. The population is unemployed, lives with them. But tired of the Government "Make work" schemes, while small amounts of managing industrial automation products and services for everyone.) Fundamental mistake for the future of these writers is that assumption. Ordinary people can not go to space , they believe that it is almost as difficult as possible to get to the area and only selected people with special training can survive. "Cruelty" of space travel , so they thought activity area will remain a little level, and that in the future humans will be the core of the Earth-bound. This idea was completely misunderstood. in fact, it is not very difficult to travel to the area - it has been conducted regularly for almost 40 years (since the pre-qualification basis of modern life is a satellite communications system, color TV. music Beatles' Boeing 747, birth control pills, credit cards, video tapes, pacemakers micro-computers, microwave ovens, compact discs, optical fiber Internet DNA finger printing, mobile phones, GPS and much more. ) and essentially anyone can travel to and from the area without stress or adverse effects. because of these facts, travel services, commercial areas can grow in the future, mainly unlimited, and they tend. to do so when the private sector began to profit from them because of the demand that has not been written large for these services - it has begun recently received official recognition for. this development will have a huge effect on the world economy and human activity in recent decades makes the vision described by most economic commentators today, including those mentioned above seriously. incorrect. 1.1 Space tourism is going to be the main reason. Why serve passengers traveling to and from the area that is not available today is not because they are difficult or even expensive, especially in less developed compared to the government's budget for the current activity. local civilians - but because the space agencies of the government is not trying to develop them - even if they spend $ 25 billion / year tax , for example, the space agency's largest NASA has "X-33". rocket reuse under development, but it is unpiloted; heir intention of "capital Star" is not suitable for passengers carrying; and it represents almost 2% of NASA's budget this space agencies of the government never conducted. market research on the demand for services space travel among the general public. because of the lack of research on the possibilities of space tourism rocket Japan society (JRS), which is a private organization established in the year 1956 began. the official "Space Tourism Project" in 1993, a series of documents and reports on the results of this work have been published (seven), the key conclusion today include: "The Kankoh-Maru" launch VTOL can be carried out. the 50 passengers to and from low Earth orbit at a cost of some $ 25,000 / passenger and can be developed and put into commercial operation within 10 years, a total investment of $ 12 billion. based on preliminary market research conducted in Japan, Canada. Germany and the United States between 1993 and 1995 (8, 9), which has been popular for travel to low Earth orbit (LEO) can be large enough to justify the production of some 50 cars Kankoh-Maru, which its activities. this may be your own -financing. Anyone in good health enough to sit on the flight schedule of the airline will make the short trip to and from the area without any adverse effects on their health, and no training. (Unless they have a role in the implementation of some of the vehicle) if there is ever a doubt about any orbital flight 77 years, US Senator John Glenn, in October 1998 eliminated. it. these results have recently been endorsed in general terms by NASA (10) by the American Institute for Aeronautics and Astronautics, AIAA, (11) and by independent researchers (12, 13), which confirmed that the passenger service. commercial space travel may grow to a size larger than all available.
