Unfortunately,
since ISDC '98, Civilian Astronaut Corp & Mayflower Expeditions have had to acknowledge that the needed funds were not materializing. The corporation has been disolved. To the credit of CEO Harry Dace, he refunded all "flight memberships" collected to date, in full, setting a very good precedent for the Space Tourist Industry. It is our firm expectation in the Lunar Reclamation Society, that eventually, Tourist flights to Space will become a reality.
