Space tourism is human space travel for recreational purposes. There are several different types of space tourism, including orbital and suborbital. Space tourism is a type of vacation where travelers pay to fly into space. The phrase "space tourism" has evolved to refer to the practice of regular people purchasing tickets for trips to and from space. This concept is considered futuristic by many. But since more and more expert work has been done on the topic in recent years, it is now evident that establishing commercial space tourism services is a viable business goal in the present day.

The space tourism industry is projected to be fueled by the rise in technological advancements, consistent transformations in technology are proliferating the demand for the space tourism market globally. Moreover, technological advancements in the field of space travel are fueling the development of spacecraft and superior rockets at a robust pace. This way, space tourists are allowed to travel into space and gain the expected experience. Moreover, major emerging economies across the globe are exploring space programs, which, in turn, is anticipated to fuel the space tourism market growth.

Moreover, the rising trend of space tourism is the major driver which propels the Space tourism market demand. The market for space tourism is expected to grow faster than expected throughout the projected period as the practice becomes more widely accepted in international markets. In addition, it is anticipated that increasing competition in the space tourism sector will drive down prices. Furthermore, as the orbit is reached by the next-generation space planes, the cost of entering space is anticipated to fall sharply. As a result, the price of launching satellites is probably going to drop significantly, which would lower the overall cost of space exploration operations. Such factors are propelling the space tourism market growth.

Additionally, a decline in the costs of space tourism flights is also a key factor boosting market growth. The downfall in the ticket prices of space tourism is attracting a large number of consumers. A journey into space now costs only $250,000 overall, down from its initial price of roughly $600,000. Customers that typically fall among the top 1% of income earners make up the entire client base for this market. 

Moreover, the focus on Research and Development (R&D) initiatives by market players is creating many opportunities in the space tourism market. There are numerous commercial suborbital spacecraft being developed right now, each with a different set of characteristics. The Suborbital Applications Research Group (SARG), founded by the Commercial Spaceflight Federation, aims to increase public awareness of the research and educational possibilities of the suborbital reusable launch vehicles now under development. 

However, technical risks with these types of activities are a factor hampering the growth of the market. Despite the fact that space missions have been successfully conducted for more than 50 years, there are many technical dangers associated with commercial, high-volume space flights employed for space tourism. 

Additionally, Strict Government rules related to spaceships are restraining the market growth.
