| Summary / Abstract (Note) | This article links the prospects of growth in space tourism to the defense preparedness of the state. It is argued that any significant developments in space tourism attract the attention of strategic planners to check the feasibility of using the transportation platforms that support tourism for strategic purposes. It is likely that the way developments in rail, air, and maritime transportation revolutionized the method of warfighting, developments in the space travel sector will make their impact on warfare in the near future. |
