Blue Origin has announced the crew for its upcoming New Shepard mission NS-34, which will include six people. Among the passengers is Justin Sun, the billionaire founder of the blockchain platform Tron. Sun initially secured his seat in 2021 by bidding $28 million at a charity auction but did not fly at that time. His bid helped fund 19 space education programs. The launch date for the NS-34 mission has not yet been announced. Alongside Sun, the crew will feature a real estate investor and a businessman, among others. This flight marks Sun's long-anticipated suborbital spaceflight with Blue Origin.
