SERA Plans Reality TV Competition to Pick Nigerian, Others for Blue Origin Spaceflight Crew

The goal is to bring send people from Nigeria, India and a region known as the Small Island Developing States on a future Blue Origin flight.

The announcement expands upon a report released in June saying the New Shepard vehicle will bring the first Nigerian to space, as well as SERA’s own announcement in April saying the company had bought a six-seat Blue Origin flight for a yet-to-be disclosed date.
