Moon Express在近期迎来了一个具有独特里程碑意义的时刻——该公司成为首家获得美国政府批准执行月球探测任务的私人公司,公司希望把月球作为最终安息之所的人,将遗体运往太空。公司联合创始人兼董事长内维恩·简表示,将骨灰运往月球的费用为每公斤300万美元,这意味着将一个普通人的遗骸运往月球,费用在500万至800万美元之间。虽然价格高昂,但这项服务却有极高的需求。简表示:“我们已经有一个很长的清单。”
Moon Express ushered in a landmark moment in the near future - the company became the first private company approved by the U.S. government to carry out lunar exploration missions. The company hopes to transport the remains to the moon as the ultimate resting place. Nevien Jane, the company’s co-founder and chairman, said the cost of transporting ashes to the moon was about $ 3 million per kilogram, which transports the remains of an ordinary person to the moon at a cost of between $ 5 million and $ 8 million. Although expensive, there is a high demand for this service. Jane said: “We already have a long list. ”
