Space tourism is a very new idea that was once thought of as no more than science fiction just like visiting the moon once was also and has been left untouched, due to certain restrictions. The idea has been around for many years, even before the first rocket went into space. During the project, we researched upon the topic of space tourism and the pros and cons of developing a space tourism industry. We also planned commercial missions to sub-orbit, low earth orbit and circumnavigate the Moon. Concluding the project,the feasibility of space tourism was analyzed using SWOT model. The major changes that will come from this new industry, as well as ideas and solutions to problems that might arise from this industry were also discussed.

In this thesis leakage reduction techniques like stack forcing, multiple threshold CMOS, variable threshold CMOS are explored, that mitigate leakage in circuits, operating in the active mode at various temperatures. Also, implications of technology scaling on the choice of techniques to mitigate total leakage are closely examined. The result is guidelines for designing low-leakage circuits in nanometer technology nodes. Logic gates in the 180nm, 130nm, 100nm and 70nm technology nodes are simulated and analyzed. Here delay analysis of various logic circuits are also examined.
