SpaceX Has Identified the First Private Passenger to Go to Space

In any case, the competition of private enterprises in exploring the universe has always been criticized. Neil deGrasse Tyson, an astrophysicist and director of the Hayden planetarium in New York City, said it was a joke if SpaceX and other private companies colonized Mars. "I want to think that SpaceX leads the space front," he told The Vergein 2015. "This will not happen and there will not be three very good reasons: First of all, it is very expensive, the investment you invested is basically a no return."

For space tourism this will be an important night. Civilian space flight company SpaceX will show off its first month travelers with the company's big BFR rocket you can see online. SpaceX CEO Elon Musk gave up even an attractive rehearsal of BFR's new rocket design on Twitter. In the second half of Thursday (September 13), SpaceX suddenly announced that the first passenger on the BFR spacecraft signed to fly the moon. The company called the flight "BFR Moon Delegation".

Then there is a mysterious question: Who is SpaceX's personal passenger to fly BFR around the moon? In February 2017, Musk announced that SpaceX will take two passengers to a private trip to the moon using Falcon Heavy rocket and Dragon probe. But earlier this year, Musk said Falcon Heavy Airlines did not skip manned Dragon flight and SpaceX turned to BFR development for deep space navigation. As a possible clue, Musk posted attractive clues: late Thursday, he posted a Japanese flag emoticon on Twitter to answer questions about the person performing the task . (Actual humor is whether musk is a passenger, billionaire will not solve this problem directly.)
