Space Travel: What's on the Horizon?

The 20th century saw humans fly for the first time with the Wright brothers. Within 50 years, commercial plane travel became common. Now in the 21st century, many people speculate that we will have commercial space travel in the next fifty years. Is this a reality or still science fiction fantasy? Who will be the driving force behind space exploration and travel? The government or private enterprise? Is the technology available? Is it a wise investment of money? Who will be able to go? Where will we go? These are just a few of the questions we will be looking at over the next few weeks.

To begin, we will watch this video that provides a nice overview of some of the potential for future space travel.
