It’s a moment we’ve been waiting years for: at least weekly – if not almost every day – there’s a new headline about space tourism. But space has never felt so close, yet so far away.

“The #dearMoon mission is still advertising itself as happening in 2023. This will almost certainly not be the case. Starship is still in development and will need to achieve several successful uncrewed spaceflights before flying humans,” tweeted Laura Seward Forczyk, the founder of“Companies should try to not overpromise. Hyping up unrealistic plans is a good way to create a cynical customer base,” said Seward Forczyk in a follow-up interview.

There are obviously several benefits to committing to a specific year, increased public interest and media exposure being chief among them. However, publishing overly ambitious – one might even say unrealistic – launch timelines can end up hurting the mission in the long run. Just think back on how many space hotels should have been launched by this point.

“History has shown us all space tourism date announcements have been overly optimistic. From the grand ambitious of space hotels to the cautious slow-moving Blue Origin, every space tourism timeline has slipped,” concludes Seward Forczyk. “Future predictions should only be trusted if both the space tourism company and the customers are ready.”
