The launch will be done at Cape Canaveral in Florida and will take two days maximum to get to the International Space Station.
Connor said that he is thrilled to be part of the mission. It should be noted that he made his wealth in the 1980s and 90s before veering into real estate.
Pathy on the other hand is the chief of Mavrik Corp and will become the 11th Canadian to ever go into space while Stibbe will be the second Israeli to have such a golden opportunity.
Micheal Suffredini, the CEO of Axiom, said the people on the trip are doing so in the interest of their communities.
