The first batch of "international" tourists successfully returned to earth after completing space travel by spaceship.

Paris, Sept. 22 (Far)-Last Saturday night, four American tourists took a three-day space trip in the Space X spacecraft, becoming the first space tourists in history.

According to Elon Musk's video report, last Saturday night, at 23:00 GMT (US East Coast Time 19:00), the "Dragon Capsule" carrying four space tourists returned to Earth. There is a heat shield outside the "Dragon Capsule", which is slowly landed on the water by four huge parachutes.

The captain of the flight, billionaire Jared Isaacman, later said: "For us, this is a sacred journey, and it has just begun."

A ship of Space X company then salvaged the space capsule. Four passengers came out one by one with smiles on their faces. Later, they took a helicopter to Kennedy Space Center, where they took off last Wednesday night. After returning to China, he was also reunited with his family there.

Elon Musk, the boss of Space X, wrote on Twitter after landing in the dragon cabin: "Congratulations, Inspiration 4." "Inspiration 4" is the official name of this mission.

These four Americans flew farther than the International Space Station (ISS), reaching an altitude of 590 kilometers. They fly at a speed of 28,000 kilometers per hour, which is equivalent to traveling around the world 15 times a day.

The completion of this mission marks that the exploration of space is becoming civilian, which proves that astronauts who have not received formal training for many years can enter space like astronauts.

Todd, the mission manager of Inspiration 4, said: "Welcome to the new space age. It is easier for ordinary people to travel in space. "

Jared Isaacman, the captain of this plane, is the owner of a financial services company. He is 38 years old and has paid tens of millions of dollars to Space X (the exact price has not been disclosed).

He provided peer "air tickets" for three strangers, including Hayley Arseno, a 29-year-old medical assistant, who was also the first person to go into space with a prosthetic leg; Sian Proctor, a professor of earth science at the age of 5/Kloc-0, and Chris broschi, a 42-year-old former member of the US Air Force.

After completing the space mission, jared said: "We like space, but it feels good to be home!"

Fully automatic flight and six months of training.

Before traveling, their training time was less than half a year. The spacecraft is fully automated, but just in case, they are trained to control the spacecraft when necessary. After arriving in space, their physical data (heart rate, sleep, oxygen saturation, cognitive ability, etc. ) there are also collections, which help to better understand the impact of the space environment on people who have just entered space.

The Space Tourism Team also raised a lot of money for St. Jude's Pediatric Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee, where Haley Arsenault received cancer treatment when she was a child and worked there when she grew up.

Various items on the spaceship (including a Creary piano) were auctioned, and the proceeds were donated to the hospital. So far, this auction has raised about 654.38+0.6 billion US dollars, of which 654.38+0 billion US dollars was donated by jared Isackman.
