Getting there isn’t easy
When planes were first perfected in the early 1900s, air travel was only available to the rich and powerful since the technology was expensive and still new. Something very similar is happening with space travel. Basically, it’s not for everyone.
First, it is incredibly costly. A few select private citizens reportedly paid about 90 million dollars for the Russian spacecraft Soyuz to fly them to the ISS. Besides, space trips require specialized training, like learning to move in zero gravity.
