Would you pay $400,000 for a hotel room in space?

We've heard of steep room rates, but this is ridiculous.

Las Vegas entrepreneur Robert Bigelow this month received a $17.8 million contract from

NASA to create a prototype of a space hotel room. Bigelow, who's investing $500 million of

his own money in this venture, dreams of a future where tourists will take round-trip

flights to space stations, where they will stay for 60 days ... for $26.3 million per

customer.

We love our dreamers big, and right now, this is about as big as it gets.
