Rabea Rogge, a robotics researcher and doctoral student, is set to become the first German woman in space, participating in SpaceX's Fram2 mission in late 2024.
Rogge expressed her excitement, stating, 'I'm really looking forward to being responsible for the research and getting some cool projects off the ground,' highlighting her role as a researcher.
The Fram2 mission is historic not only for Rogge, but also as it will be the first human flight over the Earth's poles, paving the way for new explorations.
With the rise of private space tourism, Chun Wang, a wealthy bitcoin pioneer, booked the mission, illustrating the growing involvement of private individuals in space exploration.
