SpaceX announced on Monday that it will launch four private individuals on a Crew Dragon capsule into orbit around the Earth for the Inspiration4 mission, dubbed "the world's first all-civilian mission" and scheduled to launch in the four quarter of 2021.
Elon Musk's company has announced several private missions in the past few years, including a deal with Japanese billionaire Yusaku Maezawa to fly on the company's Starship rocket on a trip around the Moon in 2023. SpaceX also has space tourism deals with Axiom Space, which aims to fly four people to the International Space Station on a 10 day trip early next year, and Space Adventures, which plans to fly four tourists on a five day "free-flyer" trip to orbit by 2022.
