Not only could the resources be used but these spaces crafts are likely to add further emissions to our atmosphere. Only ignorance would support further damage to our planet https://padlet.com/lesley_daley/newstask3/wish/324867852
    As far as being an astronaut is concerned, it is an ambition that many have had over the years and few have achieved. The training required is extensive and strenuous. Some might ask, is it really worth it? Besides the passengers aboard the air crafts would presumably not be classified as astronauts. time will tell.

    this isnt a realisatic ambition as there isnt many people who want to go up into space.

    if that's your dream you should be able to pursue and follow your dreams / ambitions ]]>     2019-01-29 11:42:26 UTC https://padlet.com/lesley_daley/newstask3/wish/325329739     i think it is a massive waste of money for something that is relatively uncharted territory for human air travel . as well as being exceptionally risky and would not intrest me at all https://padlet.com/lesley_daley/newstask3/wish/325330912 2019-01-29 11:46:39 UTC https://padlet.com/lesley_daley/newstask3/wish/325330912 https://padlet.com/lesley_daley/newstask3/wish/325331783 personally i believe that "space travel" as a tourist  is a rich peoples luxury, i mean yes its an amazing accomplishment to be able to take civilians into space or the outer atmosphere but its something that doesn't really benefit anyone. the cost to go on such a trip would be beyond expensive. and to the second point, yes i think being an astronaut is a realistic ambition for some people, telling someone that there dream inst realistic will only install less drive and passion into that person, bashing someones ideals like that inst healthy for anyone ]]> 2019-01-29 11:50:29 UTC https://padlet.com/lesley_daley/newstask3/wish/325331783 bethany https://padlet.com/lesley_daley/newstask3/wish/325789020 1) i believe that space tourism is pointless because it is a massive waste of money for a trip that you might not even be able to go out and will have to stay in what you travelled up in. 
    2) i believe that being an astronaut is not a realistic thought because not many go to space and it is very dangerous. ]]>     2019-01-30 11:45:38 UTC https://padlet.com/lesley_daley/newstask3/wish/325789020     katie https://padlet.com/lesley_daley/newstask3/wish/325789439 1) space tourism is pointless as there is nothing there to enjoy unlike travelling to different countries where you can see many different things.
    2)no as people don't really think its that important to go to space ]]>     2019-01-30 11:47:46 UTC https://padlet.com/lesley_daley/newstask3/wish/325789439
