2 week holiday in space for $25000

Space Island hopes to build a space station from 12 discarded Space-Shuttle fuel-tanks for tourism. The structure should be able to house 350 guests and 50 full-time staff within 5 years. Now, if the price depreciates, I might be able to afford it before I retire ;-)

While I admit their website does not look too professional, you should have a look at the video on the webpage (works with my 28.8 modem). I would also point out that the BBC has a reputation of checking its stories... and it's not April 1st.
