galactic suite space resort say it will cost $4.4 million for a threenight stay at the hotel.this price also includes an eightweek training course on an island.during their stay，guests would see the

future ahead of it，and forecasts space travel will become common in the future.“its very normal to think that your children，possibly within 15 years，could spend a weekend in space，” he told reuters television.a promising space tourism industry is beginning to take shape with construction in progress in new mexico of spaceport america，the worlds first facility built specifically for passengers.british industrialist richard bransons space tours firm，virgin galactic，will use the facility to send tourists to space at a cost of $200,000 a ride.galactic suite ltd，set up in 2007，hopes

200 people have expressed an interest in traveling to the space hotel and at least 43 people having already reserved it.the numbers are similar for virgin galactic with 300 people having already paid or signed up for the trip，but unlike branson，galactic suite says they will use russian rockets to transport their guests into space from a spaceport to be built on an island in the caribbean.but

together junk，but really making waste into something unique，cool，and well，something youd put into your home for instance.theres something to be said about recycling of those items we commonly throw away.the ability to take trash and garbage and turn them into art，or something intriguing that is fascinating to look at is a skill all of its own.i have often said that the true geniuses of our time，that is to say the creative genius artists of our era are those who can do this，create art that can command a high price tag from junk.over the years while traveling through the united states i had stopped into museums in many parts of the country.some of the best art ive ever seen in my life has come from garbage，trash，or junk that has been reworked and recycled into something spectacular.best of all the artists dont spend much on material costs，therefore it is mostly profitable.in fact they are using their minds to do a lot with very little.just think if we all used our minds to do this，how little we might actually throw away，and how more efficiently we could run our factories，production，and even households.after all，anything that is not used is waste，and it is thrown away.it ends up in a landfill，or a dump somewhere，and eventually it decays in the soil，causing perhaps ground water pollution.however，if we can rework these items for a couple of more rounds，and waste less，then we are providing efficiency for our civilization，and thats a good thing.any artist who can do this is not only one caring the environment，but he is also one with humanity，and using his brain power and creative genius to make us all better.6what would be the best title for the passage?agarbage in art outbrecycle garbage in a new wayca new kind of artda new way
