This site is devoted to remote lunar tourism:

 the history, the present, and the future

   Our mission is to promote the idea of remote lunar travels. We will contribute to the creation a community of people, interested to become new pioneers of lunar frontiers.



   The Moon is so close to Earth compared to other planets that it looks like our extra continent. Since the dawn of space era and even earlier man has dreamed about visiting the Moon and journey through this really an extraterrestrial world.
   In order to get all the thrills of traveling in this cosmic world, in the 21 century travelers do not need to experience high g-force during blast-off and re-entry, zero gravity, space radiations. Lunar rovers operated in quasi real time from the Earth and equipped with sensors of accelerations, turns, pitches and tilts relative to the local vertical will roll on a lunar surface. 3-D TV and full-scale simulator of movement of lunar rover will transfer tourists to space environments, on the surface of lunar world. Since man get nearly all information about the movement and spatial position from the organs of vision and a vestibular apparatus, travelers who are in the control module- simulator gain all (except for the sensation of weight) effects of presence on a lunar surface.
   And even more! They can get an experience of moon buggy drivers, as David Scott, John Young and Eugene Cernan, the only three people on the Earth who have had it so far.
  
   The correct selection of a landing site for these rovers really is a daunting task. The landing site should be of interest to many people who are willing to pay good money for a tour and would like to get the most emotion from this trip. Therefore, selection of landing site for lunar rover and hence the tours destinations is largely a social task and our work will be devoted to identify  opinion of the future lunar tourists community on this issue.
    All interested are invited to take part in the discussion and selection of future remote lunar tours destinations.
