For those of you who are more adventurous (and affluent), Space Adventures will be running 5 day long missions using SpaceX’s Crew Dragon space capsule as early as late 2021 or mid 2022. The capsule will seat up to 4 people, who will need to complete a few weeks of training before they can embark on their journey.
“This historic mission will forge a path to making spaceflight possible for all people who dream of it, and we are pleased to work with the Space Adventures’ team on the mission,”
Gwynne Shotwell, SpaceX President and CEO

SpaceX will offer space tourism flights sooner than you think

I love emerging tech, but I hate reading drawn-out, long-winded, and pointless news articles.
