If cost were no longer prohibitive would you like to vacation in space?  How about a Honeymoon?  This would be a memorable view...................Oh did I mention that it now has become no more risky than a trip to anywhere on Earth LOL...............Now that I think about it; it might be much safer.

I would say yes to that in a heartbeat. Honeymoon would require a bit of thought first
Bob B. Feb 19, 2009, 9:43pm UTC
I would love to. It would be wonderful.
Carol Lloyd Feb 19, 2009, 9:48pm UTC
Lee its safer out there than on good old planet earth
:)
Larry H. Feb 19, 2009, 9:53pm UTC
WOULD MEAN FLYING RIGHT, DON'T THINK I WOULD WANT TO GO..
Carol Lloyd Feb 19, 2009, 9:56pm UTC
Its going to be me bob and doc
I'm ready!! just let me get my shoes off!
I would go on a into space even if it was a one way trip. What a fantastic way to die! For now, I'm hoping I get hit by a satellite.

It definitely would be a trip of a lifetime BUT I wouldn't do it. My husband has an extreme fear of heights. If I did, it would be with my son who loves science.
Kay M Feb 19, 2009, 10:20pm UTC
My husband would love it but I like to keep my feet on the ground
Elizabeth B. Feb 19, 2009, 10:31pm UTC
NOOOOOOOOOO...LOL I like the earth between my toes thanks :>}
RJ H. Feb 19, 2009, 10:34pm UTC
Ditto Elizabeth B.!
Jeff H. Feb 19, 2009, 11:04pm UTC
Not for a honeymoon but for the hell of it I would.
Janet "Jax" B. Feb 20, 2009, 12:04am UTC
I wouldn't hesitate....of coarse!!! I'd be one of the first in line.
Rosa See Ya Feb 20, 2009, 6:00am UTC
Whoa, how appropriate this is, since I am reading Michael Harner's The Way of the Shaman. Cost is not a problem in traversing the different levels of consciousness. I've just taken one trip so far, but it was absolutely the best trip I've taken in my entire life span, and no drugs needed, just a little drumming. Open up the box, and let me out.
Richard B. Feb 20, 2009, 6:36am UTC
no way
Elaine S. Feb 20, 2009, 7:27am UTC
I've never even been on a plane so my answer is NO
Carol Lloyd Feb 20, 2009, 11:43am UTC
I am surprised so lets add a factor what if it were something like :Beam me up Scotty" rather than rocket travel?
Carol Lloyd Feb 20, 2009, 11:44am UTC
I am not to sure if I am ready to have my matter rearranged but I would consider it in additon to regular flight
Charles T. Feb 20, 2009, 2:52pm UTC
In a heartbeat!
Ginny W. Feb 20, 2009, 7:53pm UTC
Probably be the last in line. I like oxygen around my vehicle.

Gave you a 10.
Fran S. Feb 21, 2009, 5:30pm UTC
i get vertigo too easily, would be leary of that trip myself!
Svetlana Goryacheva Feb 22, 2009, 1:50pm UTC
Yeah, I would... gladly! :-)

Blessings and best wishes - S.
Sujata (friendly 'Suji' ) S. Feb 22, 2009, 10:43pm UTC
I would too belated oh !!

what more is new to travel so blue !!!
Selene N. Mar 1, 2009, 7:08pm UTC
Not really.... I guess I am more of a homey person. I'd rather stay home.
I think I'd prefer to stay earth bound.
Kerry (A tree, not a lemon) .. Mar 14, 2009, 11:22am UTC
I give a resounding YES!

Where do I sign up?
The Red Headed Witch of Gather G. Mar 22, 2009, 12:20pm UTC
I really don't know the answer to that...possibly
Gene P. Mar 24, 2009, 5:42pm UTC
Thanks for posting your content to the group Whatever!
Elaine A. Mar 26, 2009, 12:09pm UTC
That would be cool, however I think my fear of heights would prevent me from ever taking a space flight.
Edward W. Apr 22, 2009, 3:50am UTC
I'd like to go. But, I'm leery of that teleporter thing. Heck, my television does a poor job of reassembling a 2-dimensional image. How much more difficult it would be to accurately reassemble an actual living being? Unlike in Star Trek, even a very minor error would be devastating.
Carol Lloyd Apr 22, 2009, 4:30am UTC
Edward thats a great looking animal
~Lady Neeetah of California~Obama #44 W. May 19, 2009, 6:47am UTC
Vacation in space? It would depend just where. Travel in space? Definitely not. I'm the type that wants to get from Point A to Point B faster than the speed of light, something like closing my eyes, wishing it were so, and being there
Carol Lloyd May 19, 2009, 7:01am UTC
ty Neetah glad youre ok I had a mini stroke last weekend
Carol Lloyd May 19, 2009, 7:01am UTC
actually the honeymoon part might be a bit more difficuaolt without gravity
Carolion Grailbear May 19, 2009, 10:58am UTC
I was just thinking that. In fact, I was imagining a hilarious Peter Pan + Mary Poppins style floating...uh.....Floating. (c:*
ʚϊɞ Carol ʚϊɞ May 20, 2009, 2:31pm UTC
I think it would be awesome...maybe, if I took plenty of Dramamine! Something to think about, that would be the trip of a lifetime.
TINA s. May 31, 2009, 8:30am UTC

no never
Peter Joseph Swanson Jun 11, 2009, 6:45pm UTC

No - but I'd love to watch a documentary about those who DO go !!! ha ha
Kim J. Jun 24, 2009, 10:22am UTC

Yes....quickly.
Sarah C. Aug 12, 2009, 12:25am UTC
Thanks for commenting on my contest article! :)
Not sure I'm interested in space yet... Once there are some 5-star accomodations available - no freeze-dried food. ;)
Elaine B. Nov 21, 2009, 11:55am UTC
I don't think so, prefer staying on earth.
Shannon W Nov 30, 2009, 2:03pm UTC
I'd say yes, I'd take a trip with the kids
