Space tourist Dennis Tito books two seats to the moon on SpaceX Starship

The first person to pay his way into space has now bought two tickets to the moon.

Dennis Tito, who in 2001 became the first privately-funded space tourist to fly to the International Space Station, revealed on Wednesday (Oct. 12) that he and his wife, Akiko, have reserved seats on SpaceX's second circumlunar flight on board the still-in-development Starship launch vehicle.
