Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to explain how the elements of a tourism policy class (historical, structural, economic, social, and technological) are employed in the discussion and analysis of space tourism.
Design/methodology/approach
The material serves as revision class of methods and concepts. The topics and methods covered depend in part on previous class content making use of space tourism materials available on the web and in the literature.
Findings
The sources cited cover a remarkable and growing range of space tourism endeavors worldwide. Whilst it is definitively not a forecast, the paper does appraise future directions in space tourism.
Practical implications
Further research is required in order to properly evaluate the value of space tourism to future human societies, and strategize accordingly.
Originality/value
As a source‐based review, the paper has limited originality, but shows the possibilities and limitations of tourism planning methods for space tourism.
