An American entrepreneur who became the world’s first space tourist two decades ago is heading back up.

82-year-old Dennis Tito has signed up to ride around the moon on SpaceX’s Starship once it is developed.

Starship will be fully reusable and passenger-friendly - potentially paving the way towards a new era of space tourism.

John Spencer joins us now, he’s a space architect and the founder of the Space Tourism Society... and he also knows Dennis Tito personally!
