Scheduled ISS Missions

To date, Space Adventures has arranged spaceflights for the first and only six private space explorers.  Each of these spaceflight participants joined the crews of scheduled spaceflights to the International Space Station (ISS).

Every six months the Federal Space Agency of the Russian Federation launches a new Soyuz spacecraft and crew to the ISS.  These missions are commonly referred to as "taxi missions" because they are used to rotate the long duration crew on the station, as well as, swap out the Soyuz spacecraft that has been docked at the station for the preceding six months.

You can join one of these "taxi missions” to deliver you to the ISS. After spending just over a week on the ISS, you will return to earth with the crew who just spent six months at the space station. 

“An experience like that changes your perspective on life and on the world…”

— Mark Shuttleworth, private space explorer
