“…With the evolution of technology, the development of space tourism has gained in importance. There are several ways for space tourism to be developed (Table ), from space flights, the first tourist being Dennis Tito (Cater, ), to land‐based space tourism, and the latter is the focus of our study. According to Jafari (:56), tourism—both in theory and practice—actually becomes an important means connecting the two domains of earth and sky , allowing people to experience diversity and richness of life here and to literally touch the stars above , soon for in‐situ space visits .…”

“…For Crouch (), terrestrial space tourism probably began with the movement of astronomical observers to different locations to better observe certain astronomical phenomena such as eclipses and the movements of planets. Nowadays, there are organized visits, such as cruises and tours, to see the launch of shuttle flights, and there are some ‘space tourism tour operators’ emerging and creating a large range of diversified products (Cater, ). But the preservation of starlight as a world heritage phenomenon is very recent.…”

“…Therefore space tourists may be considered private space explorer, while it is important for professional cosmonauts otherwise, as commercial astronaut which brings substantial/missing money for the realization of cosmic program. The first space tourists flew in 2001, followed by a series of papers of authors who saw in it the realization of age-old dream of man and the beginning of a new era in the development of tourism (Меркалова, 2008;Crouch et al, 2009;Cater, 2010;Reddy, Nica and Wilkes, 2012;Von der Dunk, 2012;Webber, 2013;Chang, 2015).…”
Section: Astrotourism As Special Interest Tourismmentioning
Astrotourism is a specific, new and perspective form of tourism which stands out from the mass tourist movement with special program that includes visits to astronomical observatories, with required astronomical observations. This form of tourism is considered to be "niche tourism" or special form of tourism which is intended for individuals or small groups, creating a diversity of offers in destinations. Astrotourism is now a modest, but not negligible part of the tourist destinations that wish to enrich its tourist offer. Like other small countries, Serbia has no spectacular planetarium, giant observatories and telescopes, but there are sufficient resources, with an interesting history, on the basis of which it can be offered to astrotourists original programs whose carrier should be Astronomical Society "Rudjer Boskovic" in collaboration with the Astronomical Observatory in Belgrade.
“…Formy turystyki przyrodniczej rozwijają się z naciskiem na promowanie świado-mości w zakresie ochrony środowiska naturalnego (NEWSOME, MOORE, DOWLING 2002). Do nowych trendów należy astroturystyka (turystyka astronomiczna), oparta o racjonalne i efektywne wykorzystanie dostępnych zasobów przyrodniczych i technologii oraz o minimalizowanie niekorzystnego oddziaływania człowieka na środowisko przyrodnicze, przy jednoczesnym zaspokajaniu społecznych i ekologicznych potrzeb turystów (DUVAL 2005, CATER 2010, FAYOS-SOLÁ, MARÍN, JAFARI 2014. Coraz więcej turystów wybiera wypoczynek, nastawiając się na aktywne poznawanie i odkrywanie -3 E (entertainment, excitement, education; por.…”
W ostatnich latach pogłębia się zróżnicowanie potrzeb turystów. Wielu spośród nich chce przeżyć niepowtarzalne sytuacje i poznać nieznane im miejsca. Oznacza to konieczność kreowania nowych produktów niekonwencjonalnych i trudnych do powtórzenia wykorzystujących tradycyjne elementy w sposób nowatorski. Coraz większe zainteresowanie formami turystyki tematycznej z elementami turystyki przyrodniczej, edukacyjnej i aktywnego uczestnictwa spowodowało, że zaczęto opracowywać produkty turystyczne w oparciu o walory miejsca.W kontekście harmonii pomiędzy cechami środowiska przyrodniczego a potrzebami turystów i lokalnych społeczności we współczesnej turystyce dąży się do zachowania zasad zrównoważonego rozwoju (DURYDIWKA, KOWALCZYK, KULCZYK 2010). Turystyka zrównoważona obejmuje wszystkie http://dx
