Hi All<br /><br />Please could you fill in this questionnaire for an academic research project at the University of Surrey in the UK, it is a very important research study and would benefit from the experience of people who enjoy the subject of space such as yourselves, the link is posted below, and if you have any feedback let me know =)<br /><br /><br />http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=nPm1rg1YLNptzLMvV1Cj2w_3d_3d

If you haven'y already taken the questionnaire please do so as this is for a very important academic paper, and your input will influence the results of the study and resulting paper, so please spare 10 minutes and take the questionnaire.

Some of the questions on that survey could have been worded better, especially the last 3 questions.

Thanks for completeing the questionnaire!<br /><br />The reason some of the questions may appear poorly worded is due to the Universities strict guidlelines when carrying out questionnaires of this nature, unfortunately this questionnaire had to be moderated and some of the questions were re-worded by the universities moderators.<br /><br />Thank you to all those that have answered the questionnaire so far =) and for all those that haven't yet please take some time out to have a look, thanks.

Hi Nimbus<br /><br />Thank you very much for taking the time to fill in the questionnaire.<br /><br />have you found it interesting?

 

[nimbus]

Well not much, except a few hints at what the study will deduce from the answers <img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" /><br />It was simpler and faster to answer than I expected, so I think you've got that much on your side. Questionnaires are usualy very comprehensive and take a while to get through.<br /><br />Are you allowed to say something about the study this is for? <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>

The last question should be reworded (#10). Instead of "greatest" it should read "great" or "significant." ONLY in that way can you elicit an appropriately weighted response. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <font size="1">I put on my robe and wizard hat...</font> </div>

Nimbus<br /><br />The questionnaire was designed to be quick and easy for people to answer as we are well aware at the university that people don't like spending alot of time doing questionnaires. Making it short does has some negatives, but the positives are that we make sure that we ask more direct questions, and we ask only the questions that are needed.<br /><br />I can tell you a little bit about the study, its mainly looking at how entrepreneurs influence space travel, in particular looking at tourims of course. There are three main questions I am hoping to answer with this study, and they are:<br /><br />1) How has the private investment in space tourism affected the economic viability of space tourism?<br /><br />2) How is the current market both in terms of the customer base and the services offered for space tourism comprised.<br /><br />3) What are the relative strengths and weaknesses of existing space tourism<br /><br />At the moment weve done alot of secondary research for the study, and we are currently gathering more secondary data and data from the questionnaires we have sent out.<br /><br />I hope this answers your questions?<br /><br />
