MOSCOW, December 17. /tass/. Roscosmos cosmonaut Alexander Skvortsov did not rule out that he could become the next pilot to fly into orbit with space tourists.

Currently, two non-professional participants of the flight are on board the ISS - Japanese billionaire Yusaku Maezawa and his business assistant Yozo Hirano. They arrived on board the station on the Soyuz MS-20 spacecraft together with cosmonaut Alexander Misurkin, who became the first special correspondent of TASS on the ISS.
