The June issue of Final Frontier is one of the best I've seen in a long time.
I'd recommend it as excellent reading for anyone who's interested in Space
Tourism.
Among other things, it has an article describing the "Ultimate Vacation", plus
lists all of the various "Space-on-Earth" camps available in the US, plus lists
all the organizations (including address)which have taken an active interest in
promoting future space tourism. There's an article on Artificial Gravity being
studied here in Massachusetts; there's a large article on the International
Space University, started at MIT (but worldwide) a couple of years ago; another
article on Spaceplanes.
And on top of all that, they still have room to describe the STS-29 shuttle
mission file and the new STS-30 Magellan project. Plus, there's a "phone in
your vote" poll on Citizen's in Space. Phone is 1-900-786-3663 ($1.25 per
phone call, touch tone phones only), and question is:
"Should NASA resume its program to take ordinary citizens on the shuttle?"
This is definitely a collector's items when it comes to space magazines.
