        What is it like to travel in space? People aboard the Aurora Station(曙光女神空间站), the world's first luxury (豪华的)space hotel, can tell you in the future. The hotel plans to welcome its first guests in 2022, CNN reported.

        US company Orion Span built the hotel. It will fly 320 kilometres above Earth. It can hold six people at a time. Two of them will be workers. Maybe they used to be NASA astronauts.

        Each trip aboard the station will last for 12 days. Guests there will be able to do many interesting things. For example, they will see 16 sunrises each day. They can fly and move around in zero gravity. They can also grow food in space. Later, they can bring the food back to Earth as a

    souvenir(纪念品). These are the same things that astronauts usually do.

        Guests can also share what they see and hear with others on Earth. They can have a video chat using a high-speed internet connection. But the trip will be expensive. Each guest will have to pay at least $9. 5 million (about 60 million yuan).
