SpaceX to send tourists to the space station

SpaceX announced this week that it plans to take three tourists to the International Space Station (ISS) as early as next year.

Axar.az reports that the company has teamed up with Houston-based startup Axiom Space, which will coordinate the mission using SpaceX’s reusable rocket system.

The private citizens will travel to the ISS aboard SpaceX’s Crew Dragon capsule, which is in its final stages of testing ahead of missions some time this year transporting NASA astronauts to and from the space station. A fourth seat will be given over to an Axiom-trained astronaut who will perform flight commander duties, and also supervise the tourists during their eight days on the ISS.
