www.nbcnews.com/mach/science/look-inside-spacex-capsule-may-take-two-beyond-moon-n728336This was in the news lately So I was wondering who would like to go. It's super expensive but it it was free would you go? Look Inside the SpaceX Capsule That Will Take Two Beyond the Moon SpaceX has shared scant details about its newly announced plan to send private citizens on a trip around the moon late next year. The company hasn't disclosed the space tourists' identities or said how much they'll pay for the chance to buzz the moon and go far beyond before returning to Earth. Nor did SpaceX say exactly what training the tourists will undergo or how they will occupy themselves during the week or so between lift-off from Kennedy Space Center's near Cape Canaveral, Florida and their return to Earth.

It would of course be extremely interesting and the ultimate trip of a lifetime, but I doubt that my old frame would like a meeting with zero gravity. smiley-laughing024

Nuts I posted here and didn't hit the post button. But If I could pass all the test I would have loved to go on the Space Shuttle. I'm not so sure about Space X, I really don't think I would go. Seeing the moon that close would be something but I think if I want to see it better I'll buy a bigger telescope.

I think I'd leave it to younger and more adventurous people than what I am now.

NASA did it for years Space X is way to new but I guess they are going to dock with the space station to give them supplies but the moon is a long ways away. Ever watch Apollo 13? Great movie but shows you what could happen. It will be interesting to hear their stories when they return. Should have some great pictures since cameras are so much more advanced.

I have a hard enough time with my feet on the ground. But I still would have went on the Space Shuttle.
