If we can send one crypto-billionaire to Mars, why can't we send them all? SpaceX Taps Crypto Billionaire to Lead First Crewed Mission to Mars

During the live webcast, SpaceX played a video of cryptocurrency billionaire and civilian astronaut Chun Wang speaking from Bouvet Island in the South Atlantic Ocean. Wang, who has gone to space one time before, explained that he will embark on a Starship flyby of the Moon and Mars.
