The team behind Moon World Resorts reckon so too -- sort of.
Canada-based entrepreneur Michael R. Henderson, co-founder of Moon World Resorts, tells CNN Travel that the crux of the project is the moon is a"recognizable brand."Each Moon World Resort will include all the usual facilities in a luxury hotel, like a spa, pictured here, but with a lunar twist.
Moon World Resorts has been in the works for two decades, a time line that Henderson, who previously founded a medical services company, suggests matches the slower pace associated with space tourism more generally.The project comes with"tremendous technical challenges," Henderson explains, but he and co-founder Sandra G. Matthews are working with independent engineers and architects to make the concept a reality.
The UAE, and specifically Dubai, has been pinpointed by the company as a"front runner" for the opening of the first Moon World resort. Henderson says this is because the UAE is"very popular for tourists" and home to"a lot of infrastructure" projects. "It's not so much looking for capital," he explains."The goal for a licensor, like us, is to find the licensee. And so once once you secure the licensee, then you've the money for the projects already there -- because we're not talking about small companies, these will be major international corporations."
