SANTA MONICA, Calif., April 1, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- ParkMe, the leading provider of parking information and reservations on Planet Earth, today announces a revolutionary way to dock at all of the galaxy's increasingly busy space stations, ensuring all travelers a seamless and affordable way to park their spaceships. With a wide expansion of space travel forecasted in the next decade, ParkMe recognizes that space docking will be a major issue in the very near future.

Space exploration organizations have thrown their considerable weight behind startups to help solve the problem of space docking. With the launch of ParkMe's new technology, the galactic community will never again worry about circling the galaxy looking for a space to park.

"We've worked very hard here on our home planet to make parking easier for the world, and we're excited to now start setting our sights on the galaxy," ParkMe CEO Sam Friedman said. "It's a thrill to be offering these prestigious companies an opportunity to improve transit for humans going into space."

It's projected that space traffic will hit its peak by mid-2042, making ParkMe's new space parking technology a welcome relief for weary space travelers. The reservation system will go into immediate effect at every one of the Earth's extra-orbital docking stations, and it's set to expand beyond Mars by summer.
