This refers to tourism that includes star watching. Americans landed on the Moon in the 1960s and 1970s. Currently, there are several international collaborations on simulations and preparations for landing on Venus. China has expedited its lunar project with the Chang’e 1 and 2 spacecraft towards this goal. In the near future, the Moon and Venus and other planets will become tourist destinations.
