The Challenge | The Trans-Neptunian Spaceway

Like the Trans-Siberian Railroad linked remote parts of Asia to the West, the Trans-Neptunian Spaceway (TNS) takes tourists and entrepreneurs to the newly accessible region of our solar system beyond Neptune. Your challenge is to develop marketing materials and/or tools for the Trans-Neptunian Spaceway!

Fun Space Tourism: having more fun than robots

Fun Space Tourism is a company responsible for providing funny and wonderful experiences in TNO outside our solar system.

The Coldest Voyagers

We begin the whole process with an investigation into the characteristics of the TNOs to learn more about them. Information from NASA (Solar System Exploration) and data from the NASA Open Portal were used to learn about the dimensions of objects, as well as publications and research on the same portal on topics of interest to our idea.

We show a 2045 where human beings are bored because because the robots did most of the tasks, they have more leisure time and humans are tired of traveling on the planet due to the ease of transport that exists. In addition, humans have already traveled to closer planets because there are even small establishments in some of them, Mars type.

In this way, Fun Space Tourism arrives, as an alternative to make human beings happier and offer more entertaining and innovative experiences, leading to tourism beyond our solar system (specifically to TNOs). Initially our focus will be people with a higher economic level than the rest of society in order to later become a tourism for all. Our company would initiate a marketing process to make itself known. This includes the following tools:

  • A lottery where tickets are raffled to travel to different space objects. In this way people who want to travel and do not have to cover the cost, may have the possibility of living this experience, in the same way that we make ourselves known and generate income.
  • Advertising that includes virtual reality experience. People may have a taste of what it would be like to be living the real experience.
  • Promoting that the people attending will receive treatment from an astronaut: receiving all the necessary information, training and medical review. Everyone who dreamed of being an astronaut will love and pay for this experience.
  • Promoting the security and confidence of our tourist trip. We plan to form alliances with large companies such as NASA, which will support us throughout the process and in the event of an incident.
  • Promoting experiences that can only be lived on the planet such as having the wedding of your dreams beyond the solar system, having some amulet of materials from another planet, eating some exquisite dish with a unique spatial object, etc.

Then, we design a whole transport logistics. There will be a ship that will transport people directly and quickly to the stations that will be orbiting the 4 selected objects to visit (Eris, Pluto, Haumea, Makemake). The station will be a kind of hotel with many amenities such as adaptability to what the client wants. This station will have a wonderful view and professional team at the customer's orders. In addition, there will be small ships that will descend to the planets to observe more closely and visit the temporary settlements that exist in each. All ships have features that are detailed in the PPT.

In Eris, tourists will have the experience of surfing in the snow at severity levels never experienced. We call this Gravsurf, a new way to surf in the snow at fairly low levels of gravity.

Makemake will allow for its ice levels on the surface, that customers build ice figures and study methane in its frozen and solid form. They can go through one of the temporary settlements and wear a souvenir amulet of materials from the planet, give it to a loved one and even make proposals for marriages with rings that have materials here.

In Pluto you can navigate through the craters and mountains. Zero gravity scaling may be experienced. Pluto is very sad because he stopped being a planet and needs to be visited and live all the experiences he can offer. Also, if a single moon on earth is not enough, you will love to see that Pluto has 5 moons available for exploration.

Finally, Haumea will be one of the most visited for its peculiar characteristics. Its unique ellipsoid shape makes us enjoy a show for our eyes. For those who want to have a wedding from another planet, Haumea serves for this type of event, after all, the TNO already has the ring. Here literally the days will pass faster next to that person you want since they only last 4 Earth hours. Denominated by us the TNO of lovers, Haumea will also allow you to experience seeing the sun every 2 hours and then the night.

So that people can book their tickets we create the page www.funspacetourism.com. Here you can leave us your comments and know basic information about the destinations. Prices are in USD (Unique always and during space purchases), by its meaning in Spanish. Which is a new electronic currency used to make these space purchases. They also have observation of each object both static and moving.

It is expected that certain externalities occur from this idea:

  • Increase in knowledge and contribution to science by analyzing and exploring this new area.
  • Give opportunity to get to know and find other galaxies.
  • Make people happier, less bored and able to fulfill their children's dreams.
  • Produce economic development with the development of this new industry, the creation of jobs and the need to create these mechanisms to reach our destination.

Because the members of the team are first-trimester students and non-programming and other careers (economics and mechatronics), videos were used to learn how to create a page and manage some of the data and understand it.
