Recently, China’s private space company, Shenlan Space Co., LTD., announced that they will presale two spacecraft seats for suborbital travel in 2027. Each ticket is priced at 1.5 million yuan.
The company claims the first suborbital passenger flight will take place in 2027. Shenlan Space Co., LTD. said it will devote the three-years before the launch to R&D, conducting dozens of tests, and optimizing performance “to ensure that the rocket meets the highest safety standards.
Next month, the space concern plans to carry out a high-altitude vertical recovery flight verification on the rocket’s first stage, and perform orbital entry and recovery of Nebula-1 by the first quarter of 2025. The testing is slated for 2026, followed by commercialization in 2027.
The firm promises: “The improvement of rocket recovery technology will lay a solid foundation for Deep Blue Aerospace to promote suborbital travel projects and open a new chapter in human exploration of space.”
