Following in the footsteps of Jared Isaacman-led civilian crewed mission and Amazon boss Jeff Bezos's plans to attain escape velocity this year, NASA has announced that it is welcoming proposals from commercial establishments for two private crewed missions to the International Space Station (ISS). This breaks the space agency's tradition of flying astronauts from various countries to the ISS, partly thanks to SpaceX.
