The team will be exposed to higher levels of radiation than the astronauts stationed in the International Space Station or China’s Tiangong space station and their health is being constantly monitored so scientists and researchers can learn more about the effects of spaceflight on “ordinary” humans (rather than those superhuman astronauts).<br><br>You can expect to see plenty more from “ordinary citizens” in the future, too. In January 2022, SpaceX plans to send four people to the International Space Station in collaboration with Axiom Space, and Tom Cruise is scheduled to fly to the station for a movie project some time next year.<br>
