Space Adventure's Lunar Mission proposal invites enthusiasts to "Be the world's first private lunar explorer, see the far side of the moon and witness the Earth rise." (Credits: Space Adventures).
Space Adventures, a company which manages the sale of Soyuz seats to private citizens for trips to ISS, has put forward a new proposal to manage a private flight to the moon. Tickets will be sold for $150 million.
The mission design, according to Space Adventures founder Eric Anderson, would entail launch aboard a Soyuz followed by rendezvous in low Earth orbit with a booster rocket providing enough propellant for a fly-by of the far side of the Moon.
The following is Space Adventure’s commercial inviting sponsors and space enthusiasts to step forward in support of the lunar mission:
