According to the head of the company Orion Team Frank Bunger, the guests of the space hotel will be in zero gravity all 12 days traveling in Earth orbit.
“We're also going to do actual space research on the station, like growing food in space. We will even allow our guests to pick up groceries. They will be able to take fruits and vegetables home as a souvenir. We will also have a virtual reality room, which we call the "holodeck" after a similar space in Star Trek. And when the guests return home to Earth, they will receive the honors of heroes,” Bunger said in an interview Forbes.
