According to news from BlockBeats on July 22, following the announcement by the American commercial space company Blue Origin on July 21, TRON founder Justin Sun will fly to space aboard the Blue Origin 'New Shepard' rocket, becoming the youngest Chinese commercial astronaut in history. Justin Sun has stated that going to space has been a dream since childhood. This flight is not only a personal dream come true for him but also makes Justin Sun the first Chinese entrepreneur to bring the pioneering spirit of the blockchain industry into space.
In 2021, Justin Sun successfully bid $28 million for a seat on the first crewed flight of the 'New Shepard' and donated all the bidding funds to Blue Origin's 'Club for the Future' to support global youth STEM education.
