Royal Caribbean wants to take you to space in 2030
Here's an April Fools' joke we actually want to be real: Royal Caribbean UK has announced it's building a spaceship called "Orbiter of the Galaxy," which should be taking passengers on space cruises by 2030.
Yeah, something similar has been announced (actually announced) by Virgin Galactic, but Royal Caribbean promises one thing we really, really need: fast Internet connection throughout the solar system.

On the downside, Royal Caribbean has zero experience in space flight, so I'd probably wait for them to do a couple of test flights before embarking. On the upside, in space there is no wind or stormy seas, so it's unlikely that this would happen.
