Forget 5-star hotels – how about among the stars?

As space exploration takes on a new impulse in the second year of Donald J. Trump’s second presidential term, we begin to see a multitude of projects designed to facilitate the rise of humans as a multi-planetary species.

A mere day after NASA and the Department of Energy united to build and deploy a nuclear power plant to generate energy for a future permanent lunar base, now we have an even more surprising turn of events.

A US startup called Galactic Resource Utilization (GRU) Space is planning to build ‘a resort on the Moon’ that would be ready to receive guests in just six years.

Daily News reported:

“It is currently asking hopeful space tourists to pay a £750,000 ($1million) deposit to secure a five-night stay, which may end up costing more than £7.5million ($10million) in total.

GRU Space founder Skyler Chan, 22, a recent graduate from Berkeley in California, believes the hotel will allow humans to colonize the Moon, and eventually Mars.”

“’Humanity’s transition to a space-faring species is not a question of if, but when,’ [Skyler Chan] said. ‘We live during an inflection point where we can actually become interplanetary before we die. If we succeed, billions of human lives will be born on the Moon and Mars and be able to experience the beauty of lunar and Martian life’.”

“’As a kid, I always dreamed of going into space. But this is a very complex problem to solve. It’s not just like building a bridge. It’s a different gravity environment with different building materials. It’s such a unique, exciting problem to solve, but if we solve it, that means infinite human lives could be born on the Moon and Mars. We’re ushering in a whole new era of like life and culture’.”
