Space hotel says it's on schedule to open in 2012


The cost of a three-night stay at ‘Galactic’ resort estimated at $4.4 million





BARCELONA, Spain - A company behind plans to open the first hotel in space says it is on target to accept its first paying guests in 2012 despite critics questioning the investment and time frame for the multi-billion dollar project.



The Barcelona-based architects of The Galactic Suite Space Resort say it will cost $4.4 million for a three-night stay at the hotel, with this price including an eight-week training course on a tropical island.

During their stay, guests would see the sun rise 15 times a day and travel around the world every 80 minutes. They would wear Velcro suits so they can crawl around their pod rooms by sticking themselves to the walls like Spiderman.

عقول مُفكرة فعلاً

أتمنى أن نصل - نحن العرب - فى وقت ما إلى مثل هذه المرحلة ، على الرغم من أننى متأكد أن من أول المشتركين فى هذا الفندق سيكون على الأقل مشترك عربى من أصحاب الأموال أو الأمراء

Hi, A. Waheed! We did not know that you knew Manna! "What a wonderful coincidence!", says my Daddy.

So nice to see both of you fine folks, here. My Mommy is going to retire in about one year. Maybe we can come over to visit? Daddy says: "You are both certainly welcome to stay at our (small) home in S.W. Florida."

Daddy re-did my blogs and made them smaller with a 'Read more' button at the bottom left of each one. Please let Daddy know if everything looks o.k. on a PC. Daddy has a Mac and everything looks different on a Mac. ("better", he says).

Your friend, Ryan

PS "Do you have any ideas for getting kids to see our blog of my adventures?" and "Who do you know that can pass Ryan around so kids may enjoy his stories?" asks Daddy.
