It opens opportunities for the training of astronauts on critical tasks that can only be trained in reduced-weight environments such as parabolic flights. With appropriate installations, Orbital Views also allows modern space tourists to experience the sights, sounds, and proprioceptive feelings of space without actually going there.Keyphrases: space psychology, space tourism, virtual reality In: Akihiko Shirai, Laurent Chretien, Anne-Sophie Clayer, Simon Richir and Shoichi Hasegawa (editors).
