You can buy lots of things during a livestream(直播), such as food and clothes, and now even a ticket to space.
On October 24, Deep Blue Aerospace, a Chinese space company, sold two space travel tickets in a livestream. This was China’s first try at selling space tickets. The tickets were priced at 1.5 million yuan each. But during the livestream, they were just 1 million yuan each.
The 12-minute space trip will give a different experience. According to the company, passengers will sit in a spacecraft that is about 4 meters tall and 3.5 meters wide, with six big windows and space for six people. The spacecraft will go 100 kilometers above Earth.
Travelers will experience weightlessness(失重) for at least five minutes and see Earth from above before coming back down safely. Passengers between 18 and 60 years old can be chosen. And of course they should be healthy. After being chosen, they have to take some security training before the trip.
The trip will use the company’s Nebula-rocket. It runs on oxygen and kerosene(煤油) and can be reused. “With the development of modern technology, space tickets might become less expensive,” said Huo Liang, CEO of Deep Blue Aerospace. The company plans to do lots of tests in 2026 to make sure the space trip is safe. They hope to begin the trip in 2027.
