Japanese billionaire Yusaku Maezawa cancelled his "dearMoon" mission, which the project said would have been the first private flight around the moon, the mission announced on Saturday. "It's a developmental project so it is what it is, but it is still uncertain as to when Starship can launch," Maezawa said. Elon Musk's SpaceX named Maezawa, the colourful founder of Japanese online fashion store Zozo Inc, its first private passenger in 2018. Three years later he was the first private passenger to visit the International Space Station in more than a decade, launching on a Soyuz rocket. In November he said the flyby mission would be delayed until this year or later.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — For the EDM DJ Steve Aoki, the next frontier is the final one. A trip to outer space makes a lot of sense for the forward-thinking creator, who's releasing “HiROQUEST 2: Double Helix” on Friday. On “HiROQUEST 2: Double Helix,” his story continues, and a new antagonist is introduced. Sonically, “HiROQUEST 2: Double Helix” is a detour from the first release. In the meantime, Aoki says he knows how the “HiROQUEST” saga will end, but he's not telling more.

Japanese billionaire Yusaku Maezawa on Friday named South Korean rapper T.O.P and DJ Steve Aoki among the eight artists and entertainers who will join him on a private SpaceX trip around the moon as early as next year. It follows Maezawa’s 12-day trip to the International Space Station on a Russian Soyuz spacecraft last year. It still hasn’t even sunk in yet — and I’ve known for quite awhile,” Dodd said in a video posted after the announcement. U.S. Olympic snowboarder Kaitlyn Farrington and Japanese dancer Miyu will be backup crew members for the trip, which has been years in the making. The eight-day mission aboard SpaceX’s Starship vehicle includes three days circling the moon, coming within about 125 miles of the surface.

Japanese billionaire Yusaku Maezawa has picked his crew for his flight to the moon on SpaceX's Starship. A crew of artists, content creators, and athletes from around the world will fly to the moon as soon as next year. Maezawa, a Japanese fashion tycoon with a net worth of $1.7 billion, had purchased all the seats on the Starship flight back in 2018. His unconventional choice of travel companions for his moon mission is in line with his eclectic and flamboyant persona. In 2020, a year before he launched an open competition for the moon mission, Maezawa announced he was specifically looking for a romantic "female partner" to accompany him to the moon.

The mission, called Dear Moon, was first announced in 2018. Dear Moon still advertises that its mission will take off in 2023, though SpaceX’s new rocket and spacecraft system, known as Starship, has yet to conduct its first orbital test flight. The Dear Moon mission crew includes (clockwise from top left): Tim Dodd, Yemi A.D., Choi Seung Hyun, Steve Aoki, Rhiannon Adam, Karim Iliya, Miyu (backup), Dev Joshi, Yusaku Maezawa, Brendan Hall and Kaitlyn Farrington (backup). Since the Dear Moon mission was first announced, Maezawa made his first journey to space, taking a self-funded, 12-day journey to the International Space Station. If early test flights of Starship are successful and the Dear Moon mission gets off the ground, Maezawa’s crew could be the first group of private citizens to venture beyond low-Earth orbit.
