On 24th October, the reporter learnt from Jiangsu Deep Blue Aerospace Technology Co., Ltd. that Deep Blue Aerospace introduced the progress and plan of its commercial spacecraft manned work, and launched the pre-sale of 2 tickets for the first manned suborbital spacecraft in 2027. The suborbital manned spacecraft for the trip will be launched using Nebula 1 Rocket of Deep Blue Aerospace. The full price of a single passenger ticket is 1.5 million yuan.

Manned space travel was achieved in countries such as the United States a few years ago. In 2021, Virgin Galactic from Britain started the first commercial passenger trip to space. In only two weeks later, Blue Origin from the United States also launched its first commercial space travel. In the same year, Musk used his ‘SpaceX Dragon’ to take four passengers on a three-day orbital ‘space’ tour. In China, many commercial space companies are actively developing and exploring the commercialization of space tourism.

Manned spacecraft has a lot of mature experience in aerospace in China. Deep Blue Aerospace has always been leading in this subdivision field. From 2021 to 2022, Deep Blue Aerospace completed the first the liquid oxygen-kerosene rocket vertical take-off and landing (VTVL) flight from meter level to kilometer level in China. In November 2024, the company will carry out ‘Nebula-1’ carrier rocket first stage high-altitude vertical recovery flight verification. In the first quarter of 2025, it will realize the stage-to-orbit and recovery of ‘Nebula-1’ carrier rocket.

During the suborbital flight of Deep Blue Aerospace spacecraft, what the passengers will experience is more than just a brief experience of weightlessness. They will experience the vastness and mystery of the universe, and witness the magnificent scenery beyond Earth. It will be a comprehensive, multi-sensory space journey that is unforgettable for a lifetime.
