Well if you fancy a trip around the moon, flights are booking now…

As Soyuz was originally built to go to the moon it’s technically feasible, and the company has already brokered several private trips to the ISS, so they have a track record. As to the cost – I think the figure being quoted was in excess of one hundred million dollars per seat – and that was a few years ago.

As I recall it was rumoured at one point that James Cameron, the film director had his name down. I guess in terms of making a film of the journey, he could probably turn a profit on it.
