Elon Musk’s rocket company signed up its first passenger for a flight around the moon, taking a giant leap toward commercializing space travel — at least in terms of consumer demand.
The person’s identity will be revealed on Monday, Space Exploration Technologies Corp. said in a tweet. Asked whether he’d be the first passenger, Musk — who’s also the chief executive officer of Tesla Inc. — posted an emoji of a Japanese flag.
