Many amazing facts will take place in 2018 and one of them is undoubtedly the first civilian trip to the moon.
TWO CITIZENS WILL FLY AROUND THE MOON
Spacex, an aerospace manufacturer and space transport services company based in California, has stated that two passengers have approached them and paid them a deposit for the first ever private tickets in order to fly them to the moon. Of course full training and reparation will be followed, as well as al physical tests that need to be held for the mission to be successful. The travelers will not actually land on the moon, but rather fly around it. The trip will last approximately one week.If this really takes place, it will signify a giant step for deep space tourism (!)
This has made me thinking … Are people greedy? Why would someone travel to the space and why are all this money invested towards discovering other planets, extraterrestrial activity?
Or does this simply has to do with the need of man always to discover, always to go further, never stay still?
Whichever the case is, I have created a poll for us Virilians to see if you would be convinced / willing to make a trip to the moon! I hope you enjoy the poll, let me know in the comments and of course .. feel free to read my posts and quizzes here!

I have that fantasy of alien abduction, where I always imagine what would it be like if I got kidnapped by species from outer space.
I’m not the adventurous type anymore. At my age, just past the 3/4 century mark, I’m content with the beauty in my own neighborhood. I have only been abroad once, several decades ago. I prefer car travel around the United States when I do travel, which isn’t much anymore.
Interesting poll, I’d love to try it!
What I would be most concerned about is the g-forces at launch.
i love discovering and learning new things,if affordable,i will gladly make the trip over and over again.
I prefer to remain on solid ground ??
haha, my feelings precisely! Happy New Year!
Very inventive, Katy! What I would find the most difficult would be the extended time in a cramped, enclosed space. I’d take my best friend with me—and she happens to be my wife, the most wonderful travelling companion anyone could wish for 😀 We’ve travelled all over the world together for more than 30 years!
Thank you Norman, I so much appreciate your kind words 🙂
I am happy that you would go for it, and it is really wonderful to read your comment! I really hope that you will do all the travels together with your wife, to the most beautiful places on Earth (and even beyond if possible!)
I agree with your concerns about the cramps. However I have read that there will be plenty of training, health and fitness tests prior to the actual trip
Let’s see if I will be right!
I’d love to fly to the moon. I’d take my best friend with me.
It would certainly be an interesting travel, thank you CoffeQueen!!
I’m not much of a traveler, so I prefer to stay at home. Feet on the ground. On Earth. 🙂
I am also not the ‘braveheart’ type when it comes to such travels 😛
Thank you for commenting Zaklina, good day!
I’m neither brave, nor curious about travelling outer space. 😀
I would definitely give it a shot!
This is really bold Carol, I am nice to hear that!
If it is possible, why not?
My belief is that it will be possible in a couple of years, but the cost will probably be astronomical!
Let’s see if this first one realizes, I am curious to know 🙂
Thank you for commenting Albert, have a wonderful day!
I totally agree with you and all the calculations, Katerina. Have a great weekend and New Year’s holiday,
I like to travel, but that’s too far. Would want to use the dollars it would cost for other things/events.
Perfectly understood, I agree with you! Thank you for commenting!
Fun poll about flying to the moon! It could be fun…but scary too
Thank you for commenting 🙂 I agree totally!
