Only 24 humans have been to the Moon in history. No one has visited since the last Apollo mission in 1972. https://t.co/gtC39uBC7z

Just out of curiosity, how much would this cost. They say "ordinary people" but they surely mean rich people lolThis mission would be $100+ million today.
This mission would be $100+ million today.id actually do the 3000$ one without thinking twice.
Their goal is to get it down to ~$200,000 to travel to Mars and ~$3,000 to go to space for a half hour.
id actually do the 3000$ one without thinking twice.Me too (well I'd wait just to make sure it's safe).
id actually do the 3000$ one without thinking twice.Oh hell yeah, me too! I would probably even try saving up for a trip to mars as well.
id actually do the 3000$ one without thinking twice.I'd do the Mars one
I'd do the Mars oneMr. Moneybags over here
Mr. Moneybags over hereHaha not now but later
hmm i thought they werent to interested in the moon cayse they thought it would get in the way/take up resources that could be better spent on mars.Yeah I only want them to land on the Moon if someone else is paying for it.
i like the moon tho lol i want mankind to put people back on it. we never should have left.
Design has been changed so the ???? lands on legs that extend from the tips of the three fins, two of which actuate (mostly for pitch control)
