“You do have me at a loss, as I have never seen “2001: A Space Odyssey”.”
Haven’t seen it either, not like I was born in 1968 anyways. I have a book with all of them, 2001, 2010, 2061, 3001 (Oddysey One, Two, Three, Final). But yeah, Clarke, in his novel, said there would be a base on the moon. Not exactly for tourists, but still, we don’t have any settlement there even now in 2008.
They also would do trips to Jupiter, although their capacities don’t seem to differ from ours much in that regards (they didn’t have faster-than-light stuff or anything). Well the trip from 2001 is the first I think. And we’ve yet to go to Mars because the government decided war was more important than space, since the Cold War ended.
