Space Tourism Market Simulation


Summary: Space Tourism Market Simulation (STMS) is an interactive simulation covering various disciplines such as rocket engineering, economics, design, laws, ethics, art, etc. around space tourism to understand and practice coherences about this topic. Participants can choose one out of eight specific groups such as passenger, manufacturer, organization, space travel agency, investor, government, opposition or own created group. They can either cooperate or compete with other groups. The idea of STMS is to improve participant's knowledge and skills of space tourism in the fields of strategic decision-making, engineering, teamwork, marketing and entrepreneurial activities.

Time Frame: Minimum required time is 2 hours. Recommended time is half day to 3 days.

Group Size: Minimum number of participants is 8 plus 1 moderator. Due to the modular character of STMS, there is no limitation in maximum number of participants.
