NASA is Going to Let Tourists Go to the International Space Station

If you've had a burning desire to go to the International Space Station, you might have a chance. NASA announced that it's opening up the ISS to more commercial interests. Get ready to pay a lot though. A stay at the ISS will cost $35,000 a night!

NASA plans on starting the program in 2020 and private astronauts (aka what you'd be if you visit the ISS) would be allowed to be up there for 30 days.

NASA used to be very non-commerical about the ISS but with this announcement they'll be opening up the space station to for-profit businesses including those who want to shoot a commercial or movie up there.
