The crew of the Dear Moon Project will be leaving for the Moon in another two years, the Japanese billionaire said in a YouTube video released on March 2. The SpaceX Starship’s crew will consist of a total of 10 to 12 members, out of which eight will join on invitation from Maezawa.
The spacecraft will take three days to reach the Moon and another three days to return to the Earth, making it a six-day journey. The candidates selected by Maezawa will not have to spend a single penny as the billionaire will be sponsoring their tickets.
