It is not science fiction anymore. We have heard news that there are people who have embarked on a journey to outer space, not on a space mission, but to have a vacation. Of course at the moment, it is still largely experimental and incredibly expensive. However, in the future vacations in outer space might just be a trend. If you would still be alive by then, would you go on a journey to outer space? And what would you take with you from this journey?

God destined us to live on earth. The outer space is not for us to stay long. Of course, we may travel in space but not live for a long time there. If we go against the law of nature, we migth encounter problems and then blame God again. We should go by the will of God and not devise so many things against the will of God.

No, I would not vacation in outer space. Outer space is an unbelievably hostile environment. When I vacation, I want to be stress free and to relax, not concentrating on how to stay alive.
In outer space there are so many ways to die that you can not ever let down your guard.
When there is no air, water, or food except what you brought with you, the smallest of errors can kill you.
Everyone knows there is no gravity in space. But have you ever heard what this does to the human body? Especially the heart?
When the heart only has to pump weightless blood it gets tremendously out of shape. As a consequence, while in space astronaunts have to participate in a special exercise program to keep their hearts in shape. If I wanted to do PT (physical trainning) every day, I could have stayed in the army.
So, the long story shortened, is,"No, I do not want to vacation in Space!".

Even if I will still be alive by then, I don't like to spend vacation in outer space. Beyond some distance, there's no more gravitational pull of the earth and there's no more control from here. Have you seen those who went to the moon? I don't like to be flying like them.
