Tim to the When the first astronauts flew into space and walked on the moon many people found it hard to believe. Today, companies are offering people trips into space where they can spend a few minutes feeling weightless while enjoying spectacular views of the Earth. It's a unique experience but it only lasts a few hours and to pay for it you must be very rich. Scientists believe that in the near future there will be a way to travel to space that will allow millions of people to go on holiday in orbit. They say that a new ‘space train’ will be able to carry passengers and supplies into space through a long tube. It will be very fast, cheap and won't harm the environment. Also, travellers won't need spacesuits or oxygen tanks. Scientists feel that space tourism is going to be big. A lot of people are waiting to do what only a few NASA astronauts and wealthy adventurers could do up to now. The trains will transport holidaymakers to space stations orbiting around the Earth where there are going to be hotels. While there, guests will see the sun rise and set 16 times a day, experience great views of Earth and have fun playing around in zero gravity. + Complete the sentences.
