SpaceX All-Civilian Space Mission Raffle
The world's first all-civilian mission to space is officially slated for later this year. Named Inspiration4 in recognition of the four-person crew and their mission to inspire support for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, SpaceX is offering a seat to one lucky winner. Entrants simply need to make a $10 or larger donation to St. Jude, with more entries and bonus items available at higher donation tiers. The mission will be helmed by Jared Isaacman, an accomplished pilot and founder of Shift4 Payments, who has pledged a personal $100M donation to the charity. The winner will need to be in good physical condition, as they will undergo exhaustive astronaut training prior to the multi-day journey.
