It looks like Space X will make history next year. It has been revealed that the company will send two paying customers in a mission with their crew next year.


This is the first time in almost 45 years when humans reach that far into the space. They are planning to go beyond our natural satellite and make history.


Elon Musk, the CEO, definitely has big plans. He has been, after all, named a risk taker.


The mission will take about one week. It will first reach the area near the moon and then it will go further.


Musk himself delivered this piece of news. The mission will most likely happen at the end of the next year.


It’s still secret who will be the lucky ones going into space. Also, we don’t know how much they paid. This information will probably be kept private.


The craft that will be featured in the mission is entitled NASA Dragon.


After a while ago Musk announced this mission on social media, the two approached his company and said they want in.


According to the CEO, the sum they paid is significant. Maybe Elon wants to fight his financial issues like this.


The two customers wanted to have their identities kept secret. They are really serious about the mission.


Space X released a statement and said that this will enable humans to reach the space again and at a speed that was never seen before.


The company is aware of the risks and hopes that the two will also be. This year, they will have to go through several tests.
