This is how much a seat on China’s first commercial spaceflight costs.

🚀 Space tourism for the middle class: Startup InterstellOr has already signed up more than 20 high-profile Chinese customers, including film stars, tech executives, and poets. Its six-seat CYZ1 spacecraft is scheduled to cross the Kármán line — the boundary of space — in 2028.

Watch: China is heavily backing its commercial space sector. Rival Deep Blue Aerospace is even offering promotional tickets priced at around $140,000. That said, several critical technical tests are still pending.

  • For comparison: SpaceX tickets are rumored to cost around $50 million.
