Unfortunately, tickets are sold out. That's the announcement from Space X ahead of what is being called the first entirely civilian, private spaceflight in history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWhen this trip is over, people will look back on it as the first time ordinary people were able to go into space,\u201d says 38-year-old entrepreneur Jared Isaacman, who is one of the four participants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, not just anyone has had the chance \u2013 Isaacman has become very rich with his e-commerce company Shift 4 Payments. He is the one who bought the four tickets, for an undisclosed but certainly substantial sum, from Elon Musk's rocket company Space X.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The trip is being promoted to raise funds to fight cancer, and passenger number two is 29-year-old Hayley Arceneaux, who has recovered from bone cancer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The last two travelers are named Chris Sembroski, 41, from Seattle and Sian Proctor, 51, from Arizona.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The quartet will leave Earth in a Dragon capsule, the same vehicle that Space X uses to ferry astronauts to and from the International Space Station (ISS). The trip, dubbed Inspiration 4, will last 3-4 days and is planned for this fall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
