Background
In the Future Design workshop, we are supposed to design a future scenario that we imagine may happen in the 2050s in 10 mins

In the future, there will be several companies, like Space α, Y, and Z, that will provide space travel services to people. Interested individuals can book their space travel tickets on the company’s website, and they will receive training on how to handle weightlessness and stay safe during the trip. They can also purchase space tourism equipment at designated bases before their trip. On a particular date, they will travel to the space shuttle launch centre and, after the countdown, will take off into space to go to Mars, the Moon, or other destinations.
Additional:
In the future, space travel will become a mainstream industry, and the provision of comprehensive services will be essential for its success. As more and more people venture into space, the demand for reliable and high-quality services will increase. To meet this demand, the industry will require a complete chain of services, from ticketing, training, safety drills, embarkation, and reception to accommodation and guided tours on the target planets.
Moreover, the development of a complete starship industry chain will also be critical for the growth of the space travel industry. This will involve not only the manufacturing of space vehicles but also the design of efficient and reliable rockets, rocket recovery technology, high-performance fuel production, and safety monitoring during space travel. As technology advances, the space travel industry will also become more accessible to a broader range of people, making it an increasingly significant player in the tourism industry.
