Ever since I was kid, I wanted to go into space and be an astronaut. And my favourite astronaut at the time was Major Anthony Nelson. Ok fine, he wasn't a real astronaut but he had a challenging career constantly interrupted by the antics of his genie, Jeannie. His misfortunes took place in the city of Cocoa Beach, Florida which grew around the American Space Program in the 60s.
Well China is banking on their space program by introducing space tourism with the construction of a science theme park in its newest spaceport located in Wenchang City, southern Hainan Province.
According to Xinhua News Agency, the 120-hectare theme park will be located at the Wenchang Satellite Launch Center and is expected to be completed in 2013.
The theme park will have four exhibition sections, featuring the earth, moon, Mars and the sun. Visitors will be able to enter parts of the launch station and watch the actual rocket launch.
Wenchang Satellite Launch Center is planned as the launch pad for China's lunar probe rocket in 2013.
Now, this sounds really cool and could make for a new and unique travel destination in China.
