This star is going to the moon

Chapter 383 The Lucky Passengers Who Will Be Featured in History Books

It's perfectly reasonable for commercial flights to involve advertising sponsorships.

Further recover costs.

Just like the famous "Red Bull Commando," which is quite well-known.

Commercial missions are not national missions, and there are many rules to follow. National space missions often represent the country's image, so they cannot be carried out recklessly with commercial sponsorships...

Well, of course, this only applies to Chinese people, since in the previous life, the Americans even had sponsors for their military parades.

Moreover, there are not only advertisements for arms dealers, but also advertisements for cryptocurrencies.

Absolutely incredible!

However, today's main purpose is for journalists to record information about tourists on humanity's first fully commercial space tourism trip, which will be used in history books in the future. We can't have anything as vulgar as advertisements appearing.

Of course, the main reason is that advertisers haven't paid enough.

Flight advertising can only be effective inside the cabin of the space shuttle.

If you want to make an appearance in this kind of setting...

Need more money!
Lu Yun redefines "humanity's first fully commercial space tourism," and everyone agrees with this.

Because compared to the previous half-baked space tourism, commercial space tourism based on space shuttles marks the arrival of the true era of space tourism.

Viewers watching the live stream felt the same way.

[Into the river! Into the Tai River!]

The world is moving ever forward, comrades! We must save up enough money to go see space!

"Uh, compared to saving up 1000 million, I think the odds of me winning Lu Shen's annual lottery are much higher."

Haha, that's what I thought too! I can't wait for the next giveaway!

【Me too! 】

[Damn, a bunch of freeloaders!]

When will those space tourists, who will be featured in history books, arrive?

[It'll probably be a while longer. It seems Lu Yun will have to do some more interviews; after all, those tourists will be in history books, and so will Lu Yun.]

To be precise, they only got to appear in history books because of Lu Yun.

That's true. The five passengers on the maiden flight were incredibly lucky; even the passengers on the second flight didn't have that privilege.

There's no way around it; humanity will always aspire to be number one. Everyone knows that Mount Everest is the world's highest peak, but how many people remember what the world's second highest peak is called?

[In the field of space exploration, I only remember that the first person to enter space was Gagarin, and the first person to land on the moon was Armstrong.]

[Haha, speaking of this, Lu Yun has a little Armstrong from America working for him...]

[Hey, they're out! Five lucky passengers have come out!]

Thank goodness, there are three people from China. If they were all foreigners, it wouldn't look good.

[Don't jump to conclusions. People in several neighboring countries look similar to us, and there are even many Chinese and people of Chinese descent in Europe and America.]

Oh dear, I forgot about that. Will this important event, which's in history books, turn out to be a mistake?

[Probably not. Even if there were... surely Blue Star Aerospace would screen them, right?]

【Oh, don't you guys read the news? It's been confirmed that at least one person is from China, and he's a motorhome travel blogger named Yang Xu...】

Yang Xu, in his thirties, walked out with four other people, looking incredibly energetic!

Previously, he revealed his identity as a "first-flight passenger" at the space airport observation point, and many people at the scene took pictures of him and uploaded them to short videos. Then, his fans recognized him and further mentioned in the comments that his account was driving traffic to him. In just a few days, he gained 200 million followers!
He met four other people in the lounge, one of whom was a Chinese man like him, the owner of a smart robotic arm company, who was in his forties.

The other person looked like someone from China, but was actually a third-generation Chinese American who could no longer speak Chinese. He worked in IT and was under forty years old.

The two foreigners, a man and a woman, were from Daiying. The man worked in finance and was in his fifties.

He didn't talk to the woman in detail, only that she came from his third brother's side and seemed to be a high-caste noble or something.

She was the oldest, approaching sixty.

However, Yang Xu soon found out, because it was mentioned at the presentation.

After all, it was a reporter's interview.

Netizens found the introduction amusing.

[After all that, it turns out only one of these five lucky passengers was a professional.]

Indeed, I never expected this woman to be an astronomy researcher.

[Actually, you can tell from her name that she's of a high caste, or even noble, so it's quite normal for her to be involved in astronomical research.]

That makes sense. I remember in history books, those who studied astronomy in ancient Europe were mostly nobles and wealthy people.

Well, nowadays, people who do astronomy definitely don't have that much money to buy tickets. Only nobles and wealthy people like those in ancient times could afford to do astronomy.

[I think this setup is pretty classic: one in China works on intelligent machinery, another on online influencers; the Chinese Americans are in IT, and the third is in finance; while the Indians are just creating castles in the air.]

[Haha, now that you mention it, it's true. What if it were the Russians coming? Oligarchs?]

What if it's the American flag with the Stars and Stripes...?

The reporters conducted very detailed interviews with the five lucky passengers, and also did not forget Chen Quan, the commercial astronaut on the maiden voyage.

He has already made history enough, after all, he was the first astronaut to travel into space in a space shuttle.

After the interview, Chen Quan took the five people to train.

The training program followed the same pattern: the captains who flew with them led the training sessions, which helped to build closer relationships between them.

In case of any real problems, people who are both close to you and technically skilled are more likely to be trusted and their orders are more likely to be followed.

Bluestar Aerospace's first space tourism flight is scheduled for December 10th, which is five days away.

Over the next five days, they will undergo physical examinations to determine if they are fit to enter space.

Although they all claimed to be in good health and of the right age, and had even shown their recent medical reports, the space airport still needed to conduct a thorough check-up for them as tourists in the early stages of commercial space tourism.

Once the commercial space tourism system matures, space airports will also recognize medical examination reports from other hospitals.

Of course, once humans can truly enter space on a large scale, there will be no need for medical examinations, and ordinary people can travel to space in spacecraft just like taking an airplane.

Previously, after several manned flights, the "Wooden Kite" had confirmed that a day of training would ensure that space tourists would not cause trouble in space.

After all, they only orbited the Earth three times in total, and they weren't allowed to do any work. They could learn to eat, drink, and relieve themselves quite quickly.

However, that was just a "test flight," and it was a bit unorthodox, so formal commercial space tourism still requires three to five days of training.

We'll reduce the timeframe once things are on track.

At this time, Xiao Rizi bravely seized the opportunity to boost the aerospace traffic.

They reported that their Hayabusa2 asteroid probe's return capsule had entered Earth orbit, carrying asteroid samples and preparing to enter the atmosphere.
