re: Tourism
It doesn't seem fair for private industry to have to compete with big government launch facilities and vehicles that were developed at public expense. On the other hand, I don't like the idea of the government subsidizing the private sector with my tax dollars by allowing them to charge for services that already exist and are paid for. Do you see any way around this?
Perhaps obsolete hardware and facilities/infrastructure scheduled for scrap anyway could simply be provided to private industry at a nominal cost. Or private industry could lease or operate idle equipment and surplus inventories. Even the tooling and test gear for an obsolete rocket could have a second life with a private company.
