Japanese billionaire looking for love to take on Elon Musk’s moon trip

Live Mint  

Call it “The Bachelor: Moon Edition.” An eccentric, lonely Japanese billionaire planning to fly to the moon on Elon Musk’s rocket is looking for the love of his life to join him on his journey. Yusaku Maezawa, the first paying passenger on SpaceX’s maiden tourist voyage to the moon in 2023, tweeted a link Sunday to a website where women can apply to be his companion on the week-long space flight. “As feelings of loneliness and emptiness slowly begin to surge upon me, there’s one thing that I think about: Continuing to love one woman.” According to the website, Maezawa will begin considering the applicants by the end of the month, and a final decision will be made by the end of March. Along with his future mate, he’s said he intends to take a combination of painters, musicians, dancers, photographers, film directors, fashion designers and architects on a week-long lunar loop, where he’ll get to watch as they get inspired and create art along the way.
