SpaceX is about to make a big announcement about its private Moon mission—who the first passenger of its Big Falcon Rocket (BFR) launch vehicle will be. The individual will fly around the Moon to demonstrate the launch system as part of the company’s ongoing efforts to colonize Mars.

The company, owned by Elon Musk, said it had selected its first passenger on 14 September. “SpaceX has signed the world’s first private passenger to fly around the Moon aboard our BFR launch vehicle—an important step toward enabling access for everyday people who dream of traveling to space,” it said in a tweet, adding details about that person’s identity would be revealed on 17 September.
