SpaceX currently has 2 Crew Dragon capsules docked to the ISS, Endurance and Endeavor. Later this year, SpaceX is scheduled to carry it’s first Russian cosmonaut to ISS, along with American and Japanese astronauts. Elon Musk is going to dominate the commercial space business.

It’s been a big year for space tourism. The main issue is the ISS isn’t set-up as a holiday destination.

I wonder how long it will be until we get our first space hotel?

And $7 million for training. All ours for a mere $100,000,000. Plus the additional $38m for each of the following days. Ah, what’s another 100million? just pocket change to them.

Good grief. What kind of twisted mind must it take to think about race when reading an article about space tourism.

The kind of twisted mind like Joy Reid, who has folks like Elie Mystal on her show all the time making stupid comments like I posted above.

"...What kind of twisted mind must it take to think about race when..."

There are people - of varying races - who are absolutely
obsessed by the concept of race. So it seems only
logical that this would leak out into the general society
and "color" discourse on any and all topics. Right?

All whites! And not a single African-American in that whole crew!

Is this fool aware that Ax 1 is a privately funded mission and their astronauts paid their own way?
No one is stopping black billionaires from paying their own way to space if they want to.
